like chicago here... might be a minority, but they played with some heart last week. i feel like they're rolling, and that they will be hungry to feed off last weeks win.. not betting it though, so just my input

I chose Miami, only because it is a short week & not sure if Cutler can get it done. If he didn't throw INTs as the rate he does, I would be on them for sure. But because he is prone to, it makes me think alot harder about going with the Bears.

First thoughts I liked Miami I didnt think Chicago could have two good games in a row. But I think I liked Miami way to much. Im going to go ahead and just fade myself here and say Chicago is the way to go. Oh shit.

Here's the three things that stick out to me...

First...Cutler is prone to the big turn-over. Prime-time adds to the pressure to perform. I think Cutler is good for at least two picks and that could really hurt the Bears chances to win.

Second...The Dolphins play smart football, while the Bears have had games this year, most notably the Redskins game two weeks ago, where they play undisciplined.

Third...The Dolphins are at home.

Last week the Vikings were just horrible, which might make bettors think the Bears are on a role, but they didn't win the game, the Vikings lost it.

I think this game will be close in the first half but in the second half Cutler will make a mistake to change the outcome. I think Miami's run game will have a strong second half and I look for the Dolphins to win by six....Dolphins 23 Bears 17
