The Odds: They're In Our Favor

That storm isn't going to do crap. Sean and the team will be ready. We're going to have to cover Marshall and slow down Forte as much as possible. Let Bennett try and beat us.

I think Thomas and Robinson will have a lot of touches and we will still throw, but not as much. I also think we will see more of Humber in this one.

I think you're right but it doesn't stop me from worrying about it. Just losing power over the weekend can cost a lot of $$ because of spoiled food and so forth. I'm also starting to see a few gas lines out there with everyone topping off their tanks and getting gas for generators, just in case.

But to use the same logic, I believe Drew has never lost to Chicago in the month of October...

I think what this game is going to come down to is Jay Cutler. Will it be the brilliant Jay Cutler who can do nothing wrong? Or will it be the clueless, error-prone Cutler we saw against the Lions.

I'm betting on the clueless Cutler.

Last week Cutler saw pressure from the middle and it rattled him, this week he's gonna' see it from the ends and it's gonna' confuse him even more ... poor Jay,

Just go out and have fun playing football. What else can they do?

Cold and weather have played a key in Drews 0-4 record. Not supposed to be a problem this weekend.

Sometimes, but having been a season ticket holder since the 80s, I've seen a lot of bad luck and the constant feeling of impending doom is difficult to shake. Keep in mind, the bumper sticker they sent out with the 2005 season ticket package had only a single word in gold, on a field of black. It was the word "FAITH". Katrina hit one month later.

No team had ever won a Super Bowl after losing the last three games. Or after losing to TB. We nixed that one. Time to nix this one too.
