#Bears-#Lions . Less than 30 minutes until kickoff in Chicago.The Lions coming off a bye week, the Bears had a short week due to the MNF game. The Bears need this one to get to even with Detroit in the division. The Bears have gained some media devotees, after a strong outing in Philadelphia. The O-line has stepped up, and Cutler is making plays like his life depends on it. Does the 'old' Bears defense have enough left in the tank this week? They ran down the dream team Monday night. This should be a good one.
Go Bears!

The word from Soldier Field is that there's a lot of wind. So much so that they're having communication problems in the press box. Welcome to Chicago. We call it the Hawk.

Hester is run out of bounds near midfield, after he gets about 30. #Bears are sitting pretty again, in terms of field position.

#Bears at their 48, with 2:35 in the quarter. 1st down is a loss of 3. Cutler has to unload it, with the blitz coming. 3rd and 13, and once again it's Earl Bennett for the 1st in Lion country. From the 38, Cutler hits Knox for another 1st at the 20. Cutler is firing rockets. A Forte run loses 5, 2nd and 15, Bennett can't keep it in bounds. Replay shows differntly. With :07 on the clock, Lovie throws the challenge flag. He might actually get this one.
