Falcons are injured across both sides of the ball, especially at OT. Mack and Quinn need to feast and it isn't going to be a situation where they are playing a mobile QB. Falcon running game isn't very good and the Bears secondary is grading out as the best in the league. The D is starting to show a propensity for causing turnovers again. They really could have had two pick 6s last week. I think they get one this week.

Run that freaking ball all day on them and when you are done, run some more.

I think the Bear jump out to a big lead but give some back down the stretch.

There is a reason an 0-2 is favored over a 2-0.

Yeah it's because the Bears on are the road. The Falcons suck too.

Matt Ryan will light up the Bears D 31-17 Falcons

Starting 0-3 virtually ends your season with 15 games left. I didn't look up last year but it looks like the 2018 Texans are the only ones in 20 years who have started 0-3 and made the playoffs.

A must win game for the Falcons could also have some explanation for that line.

The Bears D will keep it close until late in the game. The offense continues to do virtually nothing.

38 points? How is that going to happen?

5 TD's and a field goal.

:

The Bears have scored 24 or more points only 4 times (I think) in their past 18 games.

Good thing we have an offensive guru for a head coach.

The Bears suck, but it looks like the Falcons are even worse.

The Score must be kicking out across the Berkshires this morning. That is what Biggs said.

Falcons might be done after the collapse last week. I can see them quitting on the coaching staff.

and half the team is injured, including Julio Jones, who still hasn't practiced this week

Injuries are subjective though. Khalil Mack has been injured since last year if you look at the game footage.

Bears D gives up on Mitch before Halftime.

Are there 2 TBA games somewhere?

I was using the proposed 2022 schedule.

MLB just changed and added shit after the season started, NFL should just throw 2 more games in.

A "must win game" has no affect on the betting line in the NFL early in the season.

Now, maybe we can argue a must win game can't happen in week 3 but given the history of teams that start 0-3 I am guessing that everyone involves feels it would be a disaster to lose this game on the Falcons side.

If only they really really wanted to win over the first two weeks, they would have won.

Julio Jones is a game time decision

Bears D hasn't faced this good an offense and Falcons D hasn't faced this bad an offense.

Falcons.

I think the Falcons are cooked. Bears score another cheap win. Not that anyone should complain, they all count the same.

Some weird-looking guy on "Around the NFL" (NFL Channel) just picked the Falcons as his Lock of the Week. He also predicted that Foles would soon be inserted as the starter at QB.

Falcons are pretty banged up, Bears are very healthy..we should win this. Going to a road stadium doesn't carry much weight without the fans.
