DID YOU KNOW???
The Chicago Bears have only beaten the Patriots once since their Super Bowl XX victory over New England.
The Chicago Bears, Atlanta Falcons, Dallas Cowboys, Minnesota Viking and Tampa Bay Buccaneers are all teams that Tom Brady is undefeated against in his almost two decade NFL career.
The New England Patriots are 59-18 in the month of October since the year 2000.
The New England Patriots are 51-14 against NFC teams since 2002 and 14-3 against the NFC North.
MATCH-UPS TO WATCH
KHALIL MACK vs LAADRIAN WADDLE
The Pats right tackle has been ruled out of Sunday's game. While Mack has been apparently nursing a sore ankle...getting a second string match-up should give Josh McDaniels fits. Does Gronk pull more blocking assignments than Brady would like to see?
KYLE FULLER vs JOSH GORDON
Gordon quickly getting on the same page as his new QB, so expect Fuller to have his hands full with the lightening fast talent. If I am Tom Brady...I am testing Fuller early and often.
ROB GRONKOWSKI vs ROQUAN SMITH
For the first time since the turn of the decade...the Bear defense has a linebacker that may be able to match-up with Brady's BFF. Between Smith's coverage skills and the need to ask Gronk to help keep Mack at bay...does Gronk go invisible in Chicago?
After the Bears OT loss in Miami and the Pats shootout victory Sunday Night against the best offense in the league...there is no piece of logic that says the Bears win this.
Which is exactly why they will.
Bears 34
Pats 30
Who you got Bear Nation?!?!?!?
