Are you fucking kidding me?! I didn't know the Seahawks played in the Lingerie League. But I guess that's to be expected from a 3rd rate sports town whose last championship was a chick's basketball team. Simply stated - BEARS WIND 31-17!!! You can take that to the window.

Seems a little presumptuous, at best. Anyway, to counter your points: 1. These ARE your week 6 Seahawks. And by that I mean nobody expects them to win again so the pressure is off. 2. The Seahawks played without Mebane. Never heard of him you say? That's what we're counting on. 3. So Peppers couldn't get up for a game because he was looking past a rookie? Good. 4. Yep, keep thinking Carroll gave up his game plan before the game starts. 5. Of *course* Hasselbeck isn't going to put up 4 TDs again. But he has playoff experience where Cutler doesn't and I think that's seriously underrated. 6. The Bears know how to lose too. They did it in week 6. 7. If, and I mean if, the Seahawks can contain Forte, do you really think Cutler can *win* for you? I give him a good 60% chance, which is better than if Forte gets on a roll. 8. It's worth mentioning that while we've lost players on our D-line, they terrorized Brees on a 3 man rush consistently. It will be a great matchup on Sunday and probably dictate the outcome of the game. 9. And by that you mean they have momentum. The same experts are calling for Seattle to get blown out so they have nothing to lose and the pressure is all on Chicago. 10. The "bye week rest" is a myth. Look up how many teams actually win after their bye week. This is "supported" by Vegas to bring bets in but studies have shown it doesn't have an empirical effect. 11. If you're comparing the Bears offense to the Saints offense and believing they are similar, I get why this article would make sense to you. 12. We didn't travel in week 6 either. Good luck at the game. I know you guys write these things to make yourself feel better, but just admit that you're nervous about the game. As you said, the Seahawks and fans can feel good about last week's win and have zero pressure. Watch the 3rd quarter of it and take a look at the Saints team crumble under the pressure of losing to a heavy underdog. Now picture Jay Cutler's nonchalant attitude trying to lead a team from behind and you'll see why we have a little confidence going into this game.

Enjoy you NFC Worst Crown and your "Seattle Superbowl" Playoff win that was attributable to an underperforming, overconfident Saints team that lowered its standard and level of play misguidedly to an inferior team. Here's a tip boys, drive out of your fog and down to Vegas, go to a betting window and say, "Bears -10." Whether or not you wear those....lime-green "jerseys"....while you do it is up to you.
