A QB DRIVEN League WEEK 2...HALAS Trophy vs LOMBARDI Trophy...CUTLER vs A-ROG...MONSTERS of the MIDWAY vs the LAMBEAU Leap...BEARS @ PACKERS...Thursday Night Football...Can BEARS cash that Check CUTLER has Cut? ...GAME Preview

Thursday Night Sunday Football is starting to look like Sunday Night with a Week 2 NFC North Backyard Boogie between the 1-0 Chicago Bears traveling to Lambeau to face a Packers Team that has lost their last 2 Games at Lambeau.

Bears QB jay Cutler wrote a Check that WR Brandon Marshall cosigned and now forget what's on the Chalkboard can the Packers stop the New Bears Offensive Look? Rogers and the Packers Offense has not been able to run the Pigskin despite Pack WR Greg Jennings who said before the Season that 2012 FA Pick Up RB and Former Bears 1st Rounder Cedric Benson would help the Pack's Offense immensely. Packers couldn't get the Ground Game going in the NFC Divisional Loss at Lambeau to Gotham City Blue and 9 Months later Ditto with the New Gold Rush.

This Match Up is just more than a Rivalry at this Point with the Packers who can ill afford to start the Season at 0-2 and losing to Two possible NFC Playoff Teams. Losing to the Bears Tonight would be a loss in the Division as well and that would be a crushing blow to the Pack Psyche.

The Bears have a new found Swagger that has resonated through the Team since the New Additions to the Offense in the Off Season and they put up Numbers on the Colts as expected looking rather Explosive doing so.

Is this a Meaningful Game in Week 2 even though it is way too early to jump to any conclusions you bet it is. These Two Teams don't meet until December 16, 2012 in Week 15 and by then the Path might be laid out to who is going where in the Post Season.

BEARS @ PACKERS Preview

Week 2

BEARS to Win: They need to begin where they left off last week with a Nice Mix of Run to Pass. The Bears have a New Two-Headed Monster at RB in Forte and Bush and they are the Bears Version of Thunder and Lightning. Cut also has New Weapons on the Outside and they are Big in the Marshall of Cook County...Brandon and 2012 2nd Round Pick Alshon Jeffrey of the 'Cocks of USC. Throw them in the Mix with Devin Hester and Earl Bennett along with Tight Ends Kellen Davis of Sparty and 2012 4th Round Pick Evan Rodriguez the Bears are Super-Explosive.

Defensively the Bears need to pressure Rogers with a limited Front like the G-Men and Niners did. If they can send just 3 to 4 Bears and get to Rogers and Drop 7 to 8 Men in Coverage the Packers will be Toast. Also they must stop RB Cedric Benson and his Group from establishing any type of run game. Be Physical on the Packers from the onset as they look as soft as the "Honey Bears" the last Two Games.

PACKERS to Win: They just need to get back to being Confident in the Scheme and play the Game like it is suppose to be played. Yes they have been manhandled the Last Two Home Games but a mark of a Top Notch Sunday Brand is how a Team responds from Week to Week with Adversity in the Building. Rogers and the Pack somehow need to establish Benson and the Run Game. WR Greg Jennings looks Doubtful and that is a crushing blow on the Outside. WRs James Jones and 2nd Year Burner Randall Cobb of "We Are UK 'Cats Lexington" will have to step up and play Big opposite of #1 WR Jordy Nelson as he will get a lot of attention from the Bears.

Defensively the Pack has been pushed around some and they can't stop the Run and when you can't stop the Run on Sunday the Passing Game is like Running Water. DT BJ Raji needs to establish himself as a Run-Stopper First at the Point of Attack and even Outside Backer Clay Matthews needs to concentrate on the Run more than Red Jersey Collections. The Secondary has Ne Pieces but they have Tramon Williams and Charles Woodson who has moved to Safety. In Space Wood is a Monster even though no one could see that vs the Niners last week. Stopping the Run and Pressuring Cut seems to be a Monumental Task for the Packers but they need to start somewhere.

Winner: BEARS as they run all over the Pack Defense and in Dom Capers We Trust starts to go out the Window in Lambeau. Bears 34-24. Bears RBs Forte and Bush go H.A.M. and all the Cheese and Sausage is coming back to Chi City on that Charter to go on Chicago Style Pizza.
