Giants 40-17 in Week 8. However, they then lost a close 20-16 decision

to the Cowboys on SNF in Week 9 and last week were held to three FGs

through the first three quarters at San Diego before McNabb's two TDs

in the fourth quarter cut the deficit to five points. However, the

Chargers tacked on a 29-yard FG with 30 seconds remaining for a 31-23

win. McNabb went 35-for-55 with 450 yards, two TDs and an interception.

It was the second-highest passing yards of McNabb's career and the

fourth 400-yard passing game by an Eagle since 1970. Eagles RB Brian

Westbrook was knocked out with another concussion and has been ruled

out this week (and probably much longer). That means the Eagles will

need to rely on McNabb and that sets up a high scoring game. The Bears

agreed to a contract extension with QB Jay Cutler through the 2013

season just a few days after the team had lost 21-14 at Atlanta in Week

6. That loss sent the Bears on a 1-4 SU and ATS slide. Cutler set a

career high with five interceptions, the last coming in the end zone on

the game's final play in Chicago last game, a Week 10 Thursday night

10-6 loss at San Francisco. Cutler is the first Bear to have at least

four INTs in a game twice in the same season since Billy Wade in 1962.

It was Cutler's fourth game with three or more interceptions over the

last two seasons, tied with Jake Delhomme for the most in the NFL. I

don't want to give Cutler a 'pass' on Chicago's offensive woes this

year but the Bears do rank 30th in the NFL at 85.2 YPG on the ground.

Matt Forte rushed for 1,238 yards as a rookie in 2008 but won't come

close to that in 2009, as he has been held to 482 yards this season

through nine games. Cutler will have to throw, which also favors the

over. The weather is expected to nice and history is also on our side

in taking the Bears 'OVER' at home. Chicago's defense led them to an

11-5 season in 2005 but the Bears lost their first playoff game that

postseason, 29-21 in Chicago to the Panthers. Beginning with that game,

the Bears have played 31 home games, with the OVER cashing 22 of 31
