Dating back to last season, Stafford had a very strong finish to the year and has started off this season continuing his very good play. Things won’t change when Stafford is in Chicago.

The Bears defense will fail to put consistent pressure on Stafford and the result will be a big game from the former Pro Bowl quarterback. Stafford will use his weapons to his advantage and crack 300 yards passing for the game and throw for at least two TDs through the air.

The Bears defense is still banged up and it’s going to show again on Sunday. Stafford is in for a big day.
