i am very nervous about this game.
the Bears defense has proven that they can contain our offense. i don't think we'll be seeing 48 points this time lol.
I think this game is going to come down to getting pressure on Cutler. In week 17 their run game seemed to be pretty effective but they stopped using it. That has been a continuing trend for the Bears this season, the majority of their games go about 60% pass 40% run.
My point being, if Cutler is given too much time he can carve up a secondary. He is going to be dropping back to pass plenty of times in the game and he needs to be pressured and hit. When Cutler is pressured/hit/sacked he gets frustrated. When he gets frustrated he makes poor decisions with his throws.
Looking back at the Bears-Seahawks game, Cutler was under almost no pressure. He had the time to allow deep routes to be run and he was able to light up the secondary. Even though he wasn't under much pressure, Cutler still gifted 2 or 3 passes that should have been easy INT's. The Packers CAN NOT afford to miss opportunities for turnovers, and our wide receivers can not drop the ball!
Needless to say, this is gonna be a fantastic game.
