The Bears playing the Falcons. Being a Bear's fan is almost like being a Cubs fan. Everytime you think this is their time. They disappoint. Even though I like the Bears defense vs
Matt Ryan. I'm not sold just yet on
Kyle Orton vs Atlanta defense. Yeah he's playing ok right now. But how long can it last. His recievers are below average. They're not consisted enough for me to believe in them.
Devin Hester I think could become a above average WR. But that would include if the O line of Chicago can protect Orton. Hester has the speed to get open down the field. But how many times can you throw the ball deep down the field. I don't see Hester as being a route runner. He's a long ball threat. I would like to see him run a few drag routes, some 5 yard slats in. Even a few curl routes. I want to see how he does catching the ball in the middle of the field. I do like the running game so far. Matt looks real good so far. The only thing that scares me is that he's a rookie. With the exception to a few rookie RB, how often do rookie RB fare well in their first year. i.e.
Cedric Benson. He's a home boy from Midland TX too. But he's a strong runner and seems to hit the holes running full speed. Barring injurys, I hope he can carry the BEARS running game through the whole season. I think the BEARS defense helps to win this game. As the "D" and special teams will score more than
Kyle Orton. I predict 2 int's, one ran back for a score. And a force fumble on
Matt Ryan for a score. Bears win 31 to 17. Look for Forte to have maybe 70 yards and 1 score.
Kyle Orton 250 yards passing, 1 int and 1 TD pass.
