The Chicago Bears defense played well last week against the Lions and they will have another solid game against the Colts. Expect Frank Gore to have a very mediocre game, potentially not even surpassing 50 yards on the ground.

They’ll make some headway on the pass rush as well, but the secondary is a little banged up, and let’s be honest, Luck is a fantastic quarterback and is going to have success more times than not.

With the running game struggling, Luck is going to throw a lot of passes, well over 40 and by pure volume, he’s going to top 300 yards. Luck may not have his best game of the year, but statistically he will look like he had another stellar outing.
