Hey, there’s a Bears game to be previewed today! If you’re back with me this season, you know this is where I break down match-ups and give my soft prediction for the outcome. (Picking NFL games is for the birds. Or for those guys who get paid more than me and are on TV. Dicks.) Anyways, the Andrew Luck-led Colts head to Chicago to meet with the Bears in week one of the NFL season. It’s time.

The Offense
In their proper introduction to the rest of the NFL world, Jay Cutler and the new-look Chicago Bears offense are primed to light it up. Cutty gets to shred a piss-poor defense in the first game into a scheme change, and he has new toys to show off. Corner Vontae Davis will see action against Brandon Marshall, but without help over the top he can’t win that match-up one-on-one. Don’t be surprised to see an early deep throw just to warn/test the Colt secondary. Indy has good pass-rushers in Dwight Freeney and Robert Mathis, but the Bear tackles are going to get help most of the afternoon on at least one of them. If Chicago allows one of those ends/outside linebackers to get going, it’d just be poor game planning. And while the passing game will find its mark, I’m expecting Matt Forte to have a huge day in his first legitimate action since his deal. Cutler will have this offense clicking on nearly all cylinders.
