I agree with Beardown. I think the only team that might stop the Bears are the Saints. Hopefully Philly will knock them out this weekend.

You are right. Part of the reason the line is so high is because Vegas knows there are alot of Bears fans that will play the Bears just because they are fans. Seattle doesn't have that big of a national following. they are trying to get money on both sides. But it's still a big line. Regardless of the line I just think the Bears will kill them. The Defense will get 4 or 5 turnovers.

I'm not a blind fan if I thought they could lose or it would be close I'd say it.

It certainly is. Apparently, everyone's willing to swallow up the "they weren't giving it their all" propaganda.

If they do, they'll certainly win. But I just don't see that happening with the d-line play they're getting. The first time around, they got pressure galore; don't count on a repeat performance there.

You never realize your thoughts were influenced until after!

I'm just saying, I think people are waaay too confident, giving the Bears' performances of late. I think the Bears are setting you guys up for one of these:

Seattle was the best possible of the 3 before the weekend. I'm not just speaking as a Bears homer here. But Dolphin is correct. The Seahawks have no chance.

--They are beat up.

--They are traveling from Seattle and playing a Noon game. Which for them will be like a 10am game. Not the biggest reason but a factor.

--I heard Homgrem's entire post game talk on NFL network. The Dallas win was this years Super Bowl to them. They are content with advancing one game with all of the injuries and problems they have this year.

--Alexander is not the same back as last year.

--Plus the Bears just have more talent and are playing at home. There is a reason Vegas put them as 8.5 favorites.

The last two Bears playoff games vs Philly and Carolina I was optimistic but not very confident. I am extremely confident in this game.

I'd say that's pretty spot on. I can't see the Seahawks taking this one...
