Texans should win big...Chicago is overrated...I have a buddy going to the game, should be fun Texans: 34 Bears: 17
I enjoyed: The big thing I took away is that there could be some serious storms rolling through during the game. Cold is overrated as a factor, but heavy rain is always a big deal.
Here we go......... In the grand scheme of things, this game is absolutely meaningless. We currently have a two-game lead on every team in our conference with head-to-head wins against two division leaders and an upcoming head-to-head game with the other - so why do they have to play an out-of-conference game like it's the Super Bowl? They should save that performance for, you know, the actual Super Bowl. It's an exciting match-up and I hope they play well. But the Buffalo game was bigger and the following Jacksonville game is bigger.
Weather forecast now has Sunday night in Chicago with a low of 39 (somewhere in the 40's during game time, I assume) and a 60% chance of rain.
This was sent to me by a coworker (the guy in the cube next to me) who is a Bears fan. http://smokinjaycutler.tumblr.com/
Anyone see the Scouts' report for the matchup on ESPN? Can't say I agree with all of their assessment.. Anyone know what they're saying on the Bears' forum?

Hmm, lost by half a point in fantasy with the Texans D. If it goes as official stat correction then I could end up winning...

Already posted? Mark Berman @MarkBermanFox26 [rquoter]Gary Kubiak also said Ben Tate & Shaun Cody (ribs) also did not practice. Cody expected to be game-time decision for the Bears. Gary Kubiak said Kevin Walter (groin) & Owen Daniels (hip) did not practice today. More tests today on Daniels. Status for Sunday TBD[/rquoter]
Nah we need to see how we play against the other top teams in the NFL. And we could very well meet Chicago in the superbowl.
Owen Daniels might not go on Sunday??? When did he suffer a hip injury?? I don't remember him missing any time in the Bills game. That combined with no Ben Tate would be a big blow to the offense.
