Chicago Bears: Key players who must step up for Week 3 win vs. Falcons

5. Eddie Jackson wants his interception back

One of the biggest plays of the game occurred with about ten minutes left in the game. Safety Eddie Jackson intercepted a Daniel Jones pass and took it 54 yards for a touchdown. That touchdown would give the Bears a 24-10 lead and likely seal the game.

The interception was nullified, however. The officials called Jackson for pass interference. Jackson appeared to be going for the ball and the rules state that the defender has every right to go for the ball.

Jackson was not happy with the call. He took to Twitter to criticized the call. He also predicted a pick-six happening soon.

After Jackson dominated the free safety position in his first two seasons in the NFL, the Bears switched him to strong safety. As good as he could be at that new position, he couldn’t dominate as a ballhawk from there as he could at free safety. He just has a nose for the football and makes the big plays.

Expect Jackson to be fired up taking on Matt Ryan and that Falcons offense. With the Falcons not having much of a rushing attack, the Bears will have ample opportunity to create turnovers. Jackson is ready to shine.

Prediction: Jackson finishes with an interception, a pick-six.
