Matt Forte is the key

Chicago bases their entire offense on him..especially with Cutler out.

Ignoring the play fakes to him and rushing the passer is going to be key.

I'm going to guess Forte can't beat us alone running the ball.

..so give him his 150 yards if necessary..

But stuff the QB and keep the turnovers coming.
 
Im less worried about him than Brandon Mashall.
Forte, Jeffery and even Bennett are capable of big plays but I dont want Marshall out there doing a Megatron to us.
 
plus its cold an windy as hell

11 degrees real feel -5

so we need a running game
 
McCown is a patient QB. He will drive slowly if you let him. I'd rather play as much press as possible, buy your pass rush an extra second and gamble on McCown not to throw a guy open in tight man coverage. Deal with forte as best as you can, but don't let McCown have all the underneath stuff. He likes that better anyway.
 
Ummma Jeffery is the player to worry about. He catches the ball in double coverage and we already have to have safety help with Brandon Marshall.
 
We can't rely on the kicking game tonight. It will be kicking a cement block. Go for touchdowns and not settle Garrett, anything over 35 yds will be extremely difficult.
 
They have a lot of weapons. Marshall Jeffrey Bennett and forte. We're not gonna stop all these guys. That why we need to come out hot on offense and put them down early. Don't let them hang around.
 
So glad we drafted Felix in the 1st round instead of this bum in the 2nd.

Sorry, I know it's juvenile, but I can't resist.
