They came to the dome in 2011 and we won pretty easily. 30-13

All depends on how the O-line performs at Soldier Field.

Re: Interesting read (from behind enemy lines)

This is not going to be played late in the year in cold weather.
Earlier this week the weatherman said it would be fairly nice on Sunday.
I was reading today about how Drew throws equally well on turf or grass. His stats are very similar within a small percentage. He doesn't get the credit for that or that he plays well on the road.
If we can get our running game going then we can dictate the game and let Drew tear up their rebuilt secondary.
Also, we must not turn over the ball. Maintain ball security and this game could be won easily.

Re: Interesting read (from behind enemy lines)

A lot of mojo, history and mystique surrounding the Saints and Sean Payton at Soldier Field; considering Payton's past, a lot of personal history there too...Brees and Payton are 0-4 there, but a lot of that negative stuff was actually a long time ago now...nothing is the same as what it was then....

I look at it like, give Sean Payton a safe to crack, and give Drew a challenge that he's never done before; especially one where you tell him he can't do something, or won't do it....tell Drew it's a streak that needs to be broken! Plus you know Sean Payton knew it would come around again, and has had this game circled in red on his calender since long before the suspension....I think it's time. Time to get these various monkeys off the back, time for payback, time to finish what Katrina really started....

If you consider the intangibles, the collective mojo, like who "WANTS" this game more, Payton and Brees and Ryan and the whole Who Dat Nation want it eleventy bajillion times more than the Bears want it, and are DUE for it; and I would not be surprised at all if that were to be reflected in the level of play.

I hope our offensive line "wants" to run block. Since it's easier than pass blocking, you'd think they'd rather, but alas....
