Chicago Bears Vs Washington Redskins: Previewing Next Sunday’s Matchup

The Bears fell to the Seattle Seahawks at home in a game they should have won. But that’s old news and hey, despite the loss, the Bears are still in first place. All of which makes the game against the Redskins not only important but dangerous.
Dangerous in the sense that Washington is coming off a near-victory against the Colts, and beat Green Bay in OT the week before, so this is a good team. Not only that, but the Bears need to figure out a way to protect Jay Cutler if they are going to insist on rushing the ball so little.
Washington is also desperate for a win. They sit at 3-3, one game behind two teams in the NFC East, whereas the Bears can still lose on Sunday since the worst they would be is tied for first place with a game up on the Packers.
Washington also has a win on the road this season, at Philadelphia, so they have demonstrated that they can win in hostile environments.
So let’s take a look at the Donovan McNabb-led Skins and see if we can’t figure this thing out a little better than last week, when I predicted an easy win for Chicago.
