The Bears offense has yet to score more than 14 points. The team has dropped its first two games of 2016, and a loss on “Sunday Night Football” could put an end to any hope the Bears had of competing for a playoff spot.

The injury to Cutler shouldn’t be a surprise since he hasn’t played 16 games in a season since 2009.
The Chicago Bears will be in the market for a quarterback when the 2017 offseason rolls around. The rushing attack could be better and maybe the Cowboys expand on really letting their rookie quarterback take a few more chances this week. They are coming off a loss to the Philadelphia Eagles where nothing went right for them, and their offense was stale.
When the Bears released the names of the players who did not travel to Arlington Cutler’s name was not on the list. If you have a cable subscription, you’re all set: you can watch Dallas Cowboys vs. And heck, the Patriots were on their third-string quarterback (rookie Jacoby Brissett) on Thursday night and waxed the Texans 27-0.
SNF. Game 3 for Dak Prescott. Dak Prescott has surpassed expectations in two games, winning on the road against the Washington Redskins in Week 2 for Dallas’ first victory of the season.
On the other side, Elliot is due for a breakout game running behind the best offensive line in football.
“They make my job back there a little more comfortable”, he said. So Cowboys coach Jason Garrett continues to recite a two-word reminder – “high and tight” – ordering the rookie to keep the ball held firmly with his wrist above his elbow. Now, they need to find a way to not let down in this game, something that is easier said than done with this bunch.
The Chicago Bears are the fourth-rated pass defense.
Hoyer, an eight-year National Football League veteran, is accustomed to moving in to the starting lineup at a moment’s notice, something he did over the span of four years in Arizona, Cleveland and Houston when he appeared in 43 games with 26 starts. Teams don’t have to throw much on you when you’re giving up 114+ on the ground each week.
If Hoyer starts with or without Jeffery, the Cowboys’ front seven will be ready to crowd the box. If he’s looking for his first 100-yard performance, Sunday night is a great place to get it.
Who would have imagined Prescott would be making more noise for the Cowboys than running back Ezekiel Elliott, drafted fourth overall to carry the ball behind that massive offensive line?
Even avid Cutler supporter Skip Bayless, who has been with Cutler since he played for the Vanderbilt Commodores, recently expressed his disappointment with the Chicago Bears player.
