The Chicago Bears have been struggling. They are coming off of a loss to the Miami Dolphins and at the end of that game, the team was heard yelling and arguing with each other in the locker room. Brandon Marshall was one of the players that was heard to be in the middle of it. The team needs to get on the same page and the team needs to protect the football.

The Bears will need better play out of Jay Cutler if they are looking for the win. Any time that Cutler has thrown an interception this season, the team has lost. He will need to do a better job of protecting the football for the offense.
The Bears will hope that they can get production out of Matt Forte. The Patriots struggled to slow the run game against the New York Jets and the Bears will be looking to pound the rock a little bit as well. Look for Forte to get plenty of opportunities in the game.
The Patriots have won 3 straight games and are coming off of that tough win against the New York Jets. They will rely on Tom Brady to guide the offense and will be looking to get the ball to Shane Vereen. Last week was the first time that the Patriots played without Stevan Ridley and Vereen stepped up. He finished with 114 totals yards and caught a pair of touchdown passes in the game.
Look for Brady and the Patriots to leave Chicago with another win under their belt.
