Thanks for making the /r/chibears gamethreads so great!
This is the 2nd top-tier QB we’ve faced this year, but I think the game is ultimately going to come down to turnovers.
Our run game seems to be back to where it was last year and it’ll probably be even better with Roschon in the lineup. I think if Bagent can avoid turning the ball over and our defense doesn’t give up big plays, we can pound the crap out of them like we did last week vs LV.
Herbert is struggling lately along with their O-line, and I think JJ continues to be impactful vs Allen, so I think this could be the week were we finally have good QB pressure.
All of these factors along with the fact that we get to play a semi-home game in LA, I think the Bears pull out a win if we win the turnover battle.
Bears - 31, LAC - 24
Do you have faith the line will stop Mack?
They stopped Crosby, who at the moment is one of the top 3-down rushers in the league. I wouldn’t be surprised but I also wouldn’t be surprised if Mack has himself a game.
I think Bosa is the real issue. Younger, faster, and they can attack both sides which will give the tackles trouble consistently. Only having one star D-Lineman is much easier to scheme against with blocking assignments.
If Hebert still has that cast on his non throwing hand, he will turn it over eventually. He just can’t hold the ball securely with that cast on.
