Chicago Bears had a rough time against the Cardinals last sunday and they got thumped at HOME nonetheless, it was a heartbreaking game since they thought that game was the turning point on the road to the playoffs, well may be this next one will be the turning point. The Bears have some injured players that might be affecting the next game, players like CB Charles Tillman is questionable and RB Garrett Wolfe is out so this could be a harsh scenario on the road, they might need someone to step up and save the day. QB Jay Cutler have had a bad season, so far he has had 14 tds and 12 interceptions with the added bonus of 19 sacks, that’s way too many for a QB that was brought here to save the Bears and to bring them to the playoff season, may be he needed to get comfortable for next season. Helping Cutler the Bears will count with RB Matt Forte, WR Devin Hester and WR Earl Bennett, they will try to help as much as possible but the key on this game will be the QB Jay Cutler to deliver and to prove what he was brought here to accomplish, he was hired to win games and he needs to show that he can. The defense will play a key factor as well, the 49ers are on a losing streak and they could be stopped and the Bears know this, they will be blitzing all game.

San Francisco 49ers and QB Shaun Hill have lost their last 4 games, 2 at home and 2 on the road which makes me think about the effect this game could have on their players, they had less time to rest and recuperate from the surprising defeat against Tennessee Titans at home, this game could be over before it starts. No serious injuries have been reported, the players available for this game offensively will be RB Frank Gore, RB Glen Coffee, TE Vernon Davis and WR Josh Morgan, they won’t make that much of a difference but at least they count with a squad healthy enough to face the Bears. The key will be to stop the Bears running and passing, the defense will have to be in their very best performance to finish the Bears on the road but this could also be a long story for the 49ers if they don’t get Cutler in trouble.
