Chicago at Atlanta
Time: 4:25 PM (ET)

After starting the season with 2-1 records, both the Atlanta Falcons and Chicago Bears have lost consecutive games to fall to the lowest records in their respected divisions. The biggest storyline for this game is Devin Hester playing against his former team, the Bears. While he’s been listed as questionable for today’s game, we’re sure there’s no way he would sit this one out. Following back-to-back road losses against the Minnesota Vikings and New York Giants, the Atlanta Falcons finally return home with aspirations of returning back to .500 football.
Chicago’s offense has been underwhelming this season and will have to heavily rely on their defensive pass-rush to set the tone for the game. With the Falcons being 0-3 on the road this season, this a must-win game for them to save their early season before the mid-way point arrives. With health issues also plaguing their offensive line, their defense will likely become fatigued allowing Jay Cutler to get his receiving duo of Alshon Jeffery and Martellus Bennett involved for some big touchdowns throughout the game.
