Wow, did the Bears show up or what? Jayman 1, Thawk zip.
Do we now give Jayman "visionary" status?

Colts.
So far, my strategy has worked: I root against the bears, (or at least be skeptical) and they win. I root FOR the bears, and they lose, and lose bad. so guess what......GO COLTS!!!!!;-) O.K. seriously, I'm starting to buy into the "get turnovers and you win" thing. I'm still worried sick about Grossman and his "brainfarts", but if we can run and keep the ball from Peyton, we could actually pull this out. Here are my keys for the Bears
1. run effectively
2. Pressure Peyton
3. Force turnovers
4. Minimize Grossman's need to throw more than 20 passes.
The above is easier said than done, but Peyton can be pressured into turnovers, though without Tommie Harris, our pass rush is much less effective. The Colts need this win more than the bears, due to the fact that the AFC is so much more competitive than the NFC, and the bears have a lot more room to improve (see Grossman). I won't be too upset by a bears loss, but they sure are tired of being the underdog....
