People should not underestimate Daniel Manning returning kickoffs, the kid has flash and dazzle to him, I'm just as concerned there as with Hester on punts.

My biggest concern is the Cutler/Olsen connection, I have a feeling they'll be going to that a lot. Cutler will take plenty of chances down field with receivers, so we'll have to play that responsibility and force our LBs to get deep enough to cover, should be interesting, and worrisome to me.

man. i'm going to have more knots in my stomach related to this game than i am about meeting my gf's parents for the first time earlier in the day!!

Twinkie, since when do blow-up dolls have parents?

SNAP!
ZING!

Chicago
Defense- Truly overrated. They don't have much to harp about other than Urlacher claiming this is his comeback year. There secondary is hurting.

Offense- Cutler-Forte-Olsen. This is all they have. I think we can stop Olsen from having a big game. I am concerned about stopping the run though. Cutler better watch his back as well because Orlando Pace gave up a lot to a smaller Denver defensive end.

Green Bay
Defense- WHO KNOWS? We had a great preseason. Capers showed the fans how unpredictable the defense he runs is and got us excited. I hope the defense ran all the kinks out during camps and preseason. I am VERY excited to see these guys light some players up

Offense- Always a threat. Imagine our pass game if Ryan Grant has an above average year. I really hope Grant shows up Sunday night. Rodgers and the receivers are going to eat the Bears secondary alive.
I want to see the o-line minimize their penalties this game.

Packers-31
Bears-14

My thoughts exactly...

However, Hester did most of his damage as a punt returner. I believe he has only returned one kick for a TD.

---

This is true, however, we held Hester in check last year and that was with Frost as the Punter. Kapinos looked great during that last preseason game.

---

I'm a little worried that they might try to attack Kampy a lil more in depth than teams did in the preseason. Still not sure how he's going to handle a team picking on his coverage abilities.

I would like to see one of our QBs in the last few years NOT throw an INT to Urlacher. Seems as though he's had at least one the last 3 or 4 seasons.

I'm looking for our offense to run rampant on their aging D!

I'm just gald it's here...the best part of my year is FINALLY here!

And above ALL else, Go PACK, GO!!!

Danieal Manning. Safety, emergeny CB. He's a good returner.

---

My biggest worry is if the Packers are down going into the 4th. My only worry about Rogers for this season is:
#1: Staying Healthy....dont get hurt!
and #2: His 4th Quarter game winning drives. I remember from last season the pressure got to much on must win Drives, But im hoping that experiance will now help him make better moves at these times. Or the defense is good enough not to need a must win drive!

Personally i think it will be a wide open game, either high scoring or very low scoring. But i just hope the lost in the last preseason game was a blip.

But we know that Detroit went 4-0 in preseason last season...only to go 0-16.

Im hoping that GreenBay will bring more face on Monday (sucks its a late night for me!!) and stick it to them.
