3. Force Turnovers

If the Bears are going to win on Sunday, then the defense will need to set up the offense up with good field position. That all starts with creating turnovers.

When it comes to creating turnovers this season, the Bears defense has been one of the best units in the NFL. In three different games this season, the Bears managed to force four turnovers. That formula will help this team on Sunday.

With Eddie Jackson likely to be back for Sunday’s game, the Bears should see a boost in the turnover category. Jackson will especially be valuable here as he anticipates what the quarterback is going to do and then jumps routes as the ball gets near the wide receiver, which leads to an interception.

If the Bears defense can jump wide receivers routes, force fumbles, and get after the quarterback, then that should set the Bears offense up in a position to score some points early establishing an early lead.
