Prediction: Jets 31 Chicago 9
This game has had a big red circle around it on my calendar all year.
Nobody remembers history-but that's okay, I remember.
First of all, I'm sick of everyone saying nobody picked the Jets to win more than three games this year. I clearly had them going to 8-8 back in July when I made my pre-season predictions.
So if you look at what I blogged in July, I am a combined 7-2 overall. 4-1 away, 3-1 home. Not bad. I may have a worse record during the regular season, I don't know and I am not checking.
I looked at every game and made a game by game analysis, and it wasn't pretty but it was the preseason so give me a break.
Here is what I wrote about this game back in July: "Jets defense will beat the Bears Offense. Jets win." That's it, a short prediction that I stand by today. To that end, a blogger who goes by chitownsfinest wrote back this comment "I understand you are an optimistic Jets fan, but to pick the Jets over the Bears with no explanation besides Jets Def. beats Bears Off. is simply idiotic. Our Def. will surely crush your off., which is run by an un-named quarterback and still relies on Curtis Martin. And where you see that your defense will beat the bears offense is strange to me, seeing their running game was top ten last year, and only getting better with a healthy Cedrick Benson. All I can see to you bleeding green is that when you face the bears, at least one Jet will definitely be bleeding."
Ouch!
The Bears have been impressive this year; I mean who would have thought that they would beat teams with a combined win-loss record of 30-42. The mighty Bears have beaten only 2 teams with winning records, Seattle and the Giants, both teams with serious player injuries.
Oh yeah, they also lost at home to the 3-6 Dolphins, and beat Arizona by 1 point. I guess I'm just not impressed. I know the Jets have done poorly against teams with winning records as well, and they have played a few stinkers, but momentum is on their side. Last week they found resolve, this time it will be momentum.
So we find out this weekend, eh? Will the Jets Defense beat the Bears offense? Is it still an idiotic explanation after last week in New England?
We will see.
No more yapping, your Bears in My house-Sunday, 1:00.
Oh yeah, I found the Flag Girls, se hello to a Flag Girl (No names provided)
Hey Jets-let's get some more pictures of our adorable flag girls this weekend!
