Atlanta (-6 1/2) at Bears (9-10-17)

[oldunclemark]

1 p.m. EST Kevin Burkhardt, Charles Davis and Pam Oliver on CBS

70 degrees and sunny, over-under at 47

 

The new look Bears debut Mike Glennon at QB..helped out by Jordan Howard (1,313 yards rushing in 2016) and virtually nobody at wide receiver

New In the secondary is Prince (I cant spell his name) Amukamura, safety Quintin Demps.. OLB Leonard Floyd and ILB Jerrell Freeman lead the "D" Danny Trevethan will not play.

 

After the game, they will be toasted or well roasted by MVP Matt Ryan and all-NFL WR Julio Jones.

The falcons have jacked up the defense with Donttari Poe at DT and 1st round pick Tak McKinley. Vic Beasley had 15 sacks last year and the Bears offensive tackles are not state of the art.

Bears secretly hope Glennon sprains and ankle to Mitch Trubisky can make his debut in front of a roaring home crowd that will secretly be checking the Cubs-Brewers score on their cell phones

 

  If the spread gets about 7, many will be tempted to take the Bears but don't. Atlanta is too fast all over the field. They'll win by 10 or more

Atlanta should win this easily.

I don't think the Falcons recover right away

and yet here I sit watching this game because it's all that's on in the Indy market. Go Bear(sssssssssss) I guess...

 

[Luck is Good]

Good stop by the Bears. Let's see the offense now without Cutler

[shakedownstreet]

I'll bet you're still allowed to smoke at Soldier field 

[shakedownstreet]

3-3 

[IndyScribe]

3-3. Neither side with a good offense.

[shakedownstreet]

That field goal is the most exciting thing to happen at Soldier Field in 20 years! 

[Luck is Good]

Freeman TD 10-3 Falcons

[shakedownstreet]

Falcons, Wildcats, and Bears, oh my!

 

[Luck is Good]

Tarik Cohen and Jordan Howard could be a great tandem

[shakedownstreet]

Once again we saw atlanta with the lead in bears territory not using up the entire play clock. That's what lost them the damn superbowl

[oldunclemark]

Good try but 2 drops cost the Bears...23-17...

Didn't think Cohen was real when I saw him in preseason...

..I'd almost rather have him on the field than Jordan Howard

sorry

The Bears should've won that if they could catch the damn ball in the end zone. 

 

I don't like how this season is starting for the NFC South...Both Carolina and Atlanta get cupcakes with the worst teams in the NFC, and neither of them have looked really impressive.
