Last place teams collide in Oakland when my 3-5 Chicago Bears visit the 2-6 Oakland Raiders.

The Bears are coming off a bye week and will look to get their season back on track. But the Raiders are coming off a 24-17 to the Sage Roosevelt lead Texans.

Time 4:15 ET on FOX (Regional Coverage)

Here is what I don't like. This is the first of back to back trips to the West coast for the Bears, next week Seattle. Even though these games look winable, I'm not going to be surprised if the Bears lose this week and next week. Also, Ruben Brown was placed on IR today.

Last year the there was the East Coast trip so long trips aren't new to the Bears

Last year we had a team.

you havent given me much help in deciding how to pick here bears. Looks to me like another of my coin tossing decisions. (I keep a coin in here at all times just for this purpose)
Heads Bears
Tails Raiders

Its tails Raiders win

[Be Da Bear]

Well the Raiders are a little banged up at WR and RB. I hope the Bears got a little rest to get healthy, like B.U's back, Vasher, Tillman and so on. The Bears know if they lose this game the season will be all but over with. If the D can get some pressure on J. McNown, and if the Bears can RUN THE BALL they will be in good shape for this one. We might get to see J. Russell this week as well.

Here is one good reason, they are playing the Raiders

[Be Da Bear]

This offense is FLAT. The Bears are getting good field Pos but not doing anything with it. 3rd and 20, 3rd and 14. On the 3rd and 20 they throw a 2 yard pass to AP. You are on the road, for crying out loud, play to win the damn game.

[bears9]

The offense sucks again We are at halftime with the game tied 3-3. Griese went out with a shoulder injury with about 2 minutes to go in the 1st half. Grossman dropped a snap and never passed.

[bears9]

TOUCHDOWN BEARS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Grossman hits Berrian 59 yards down field to give them a 10-6 lead with 3 minutes eleven seconds left

[bears9]

Ogylenle forces a fumble recovered by Idonije at the 4 yard line. Benson runs it in for a TD. Bears lead 17-6

[bears9]

McCown picked off as time exspired, Bears Win 17-6


GO BEARS !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The Bears brought Rexie back. He's the Bears new starting QB. Some of you not liking that. LOL! Great win for the Bears even though it didn't look pretty, it's still a win. Gotta get home and get ready to go right back out West next week against Seattle. Washington getting beat, and N.O losing today really helped out the Bears today.

Griese got hurt, he was not pulled I just want to point out. But Grossman looked great and should get his job back.

[Be Da Bear]

Hurt or not, imo Griese was going to get pulled today anyway. I hope this benching was a wake up call for Rex and he can just move forward from here on out.
