It took until the third quarter before Jay Cutler unlocked Alshon Jeffery, making the connections with the Bears’ star receiver we expected when the gunslinger returned. If the Bears, five-point underdogs, lose, they jump ahead of San Francisco in the draft order before their bye week. The Detroit Lions (4-4) were defeated by the Houston Texans, and the Green Bay Packers (4-3) lost in a nail-biter against the Atlanta Falcons. The Vikings’ new quarterback had been incredibly efficient in his first four games before completing only 58.5 percent of his passes last week.

– Amari Cooper and Michael Crabtree, Raiders. Aims for 3rd in row with TD catch. Jay Cutler returns for Chicago, as quarterback, but that should not make a difference. Has 85+ rec. yards in 5 of past 6 at home. It was nearly a bigger advantage, but Chicago settled for field goals on its first two trips inside the 20. An absolutely baffling decision to kick a 28-yard field goal to go up 6-0.
– Shaq Barrett, Broncos, blocked an extra-point attempt by Josh Lambo in Denver’s 27-19 win over San Diego. Has 3 sacks in past 3 at home. Treadwell is still seeking his first career reception. Only the Denver Broncos and the Buffalo Bills average more sacks per game. Howard easily surpassed his previous high of 118 yards. Meanwhile, Jordan Howard rushed 11 times for 97 yards and caught three passes for 48 yards. He also threw an interception.
Howard had a 69-yard run, the longest for Chicago in seven years. “He wants to be out there playing, so obviously, as soon as he can get in there, he’s going to”, Cavallari told the Tribune. Dallas’ Jason Witten broke Ed “Too Tall” Jones’ franchise record with his 204th start in the Cowboys’ 29-23 overtime victory over Philadelphia. Vikings lead series 57-50-2. Basically, Philadelphia’s defensive lineman had their way with the Vikings’ offensive line and were easily able to get to the QB who started off the season on a tear.

– Bradford simply hasn’t been sharp since the Houston game. He had no regrets sending the Denver Broncos two first-round picks and a third-round picks for the franchise quarterback.
Tracy Time- Despite holding relatively strong during the first half, Porter was shredded throughout the second half.

Head linesman Ed Walker was taken from the field on a cart after he slipped on the Soldier Field grass in the first quarter. Smith was then diagnosed with a concussion and did not return. The team has given up just two 14 per game so far, heading into tonight’s contest. Seattle and Arizona tied 6-6 last Sunday. The unit had just four combined over the last two weeks.
