Da Bears come to the Clink Friday the 22nd for a reality check with nothing to lose but any hope in the 2014 season to advance in the playoffs...that is IF they can get past the Packers. Aaron Rodgers is supposed to be healthy again so it is likely that a wildcard is the best the Bears can hope for.
The Pack will lose their opener in Seattle so Chicago will have that slight boost going into the season.
Traditionally the third preseason game shows the most first string action so look for a high scoring exhibition as Russell Wilson, Percy Harvin and Marshawn Lynch will have their way with Chicago's defense through 3 qtrs.
If I was Carroll I would sit Wilson and Harvin and not expose them to any unneccesary injury in this no count game.
We REALLY need to save our number one's for the home opener against the Packers. As noted by Friday's TV commentators Seattle first team is at mid season form right now. There is nothing gained and much to lose by risking some yahoo that won't even make the Bears team trying to make a name for himself by doing something stupid and illegal like hitting one of our stars in the head or the knees.
