Chicago Bears Injury Report

I thought the whole football team was very focused this week as they well should be going to play a team [like the Seahawks] in a venue like Seattle”.

“Were not the only team in the league thats 0-2, ” Fox said. But even the most casual of observers can see that there was little room to run in St. Louis and even less in Green Bay.

The Seahawks dropped their first two games on the road, so this line is clearly more of a testament to the Bears’ complete ineptitude over the first two games, along with the absence of Cutler and a pass rush. Okay, so the Bears are pretty much the flawless spot for Chancellor to make his return and make it appears as if all is right in the Seahawks’ world again. He’s going to play in this game and should get a lot of plays in, if not playing a full game. Including the Super Bowl loss to New England, the Seahawks have held fourth-quarter leads in each of their last three games and lost. Both Brandon Mebane and Ahtyba Rubin saw their snaps decrease considerably in favor of pass rushers like Jordan Hill and Cassius Marsh.

“That’s always been the battle cry about finishing and to do right longer than the other guys. We need to improve and we’re doing everything we can to do that”. Can he convince the defense that it’s December already, when they allowed a mere 8.25 points per game previous year?

So the Bears are in a lot of trouble at CenturyLink Field, where the Seahawks are 22-2 over the past three regular seasons.

To no one’s surprise, quarterback Jay Cutler was ruled out of Sunday’s game with the Seattle Seahawks and, unfortunately for backup Jimmy Clausen, so is wide receiver Alshon Jeffery, as both players are dealing with hamstring injuries.

That were some things I didn’t understand and I need to get them off my chest. It’s not that Seattle’s DOA as Week 3 inexorably rolls around. He also sat out a Week 16 loss to the Lions last season after being benched by coach Marc Trestman.

Considering the problems the Bears had with false starts while trying to pick up a different cadence from Clausen last week, the noise is potentially a risky situation.

“[He’s] a really good decision-maker”, Rodgers said.

The Seattle Seahawks are set to face off against the Chicago Bears in Week 3 National Football League action and are hoping to come away with their first win of the season.

It is weird that the narrative is that Graham isn’t involved in the offense because in Week 1 he had six catches for 51 yards and a touchdown. He’s averaging 101 rushing yards through the first two games.

WHERE’S JIMMY?: The arrival of Jimmy Graham was supposed to bring a unique dynamic to Seattle’s offense that was previously absent.

The New Orleans Saints may also be required to start Luke McCown if Drew Brees fails to fully recover from a shoulder injury in time for Sunday’s game against the Carolina Panthers. Wilson scrambled 10 times for 78 yards last week against Green Bay. Expect the Seahawks to be aggressive in getting Graham opportunities against Chicago’s defense that has allowed seven touchdowns passing.

That the Patriots and Chargers, teams with franchise quarterbacks, came calling should signal that the Bears might have something in Fales. These are all things that have mattered to the Seahawks in the last two seasons, and it’s something that former players, coaches and general managers have all talked about: The Seahawks have looked like a team that wanted to play for each other, and that’s impossible to fake.
