IOWA CITY, Iowa
– If Chicago Bears quarterback Jay Cutler is able to play this week against the
Oakland Raiders, the Bears will get their first win of the season.
Cutler is listed
as questionable with a hamstring injury that he suffered in the week two loss
against the Arizona Cardinals.
If offensive
coordinator Adam Gase, establishes the running game early with running back
Matt Forte, this gives the Bears the best chance to be successful against the
Raiders. Establishing the run will set up the play action pass, which will
hopefully get tight end Martellus Bennett and wide receiver Eddie Royal
involved.
With Cutler
commanding the offense the Bears have a chance to move the ball on the Raiders
and put up points. With Cutler, the offense gains the ability to take some
shots down the field and with his arm make the more difficult throws.
If Cutler is
unable to play in Sunday’s game, the Bears will fall to 0-4 on the season. With
Jimmy Clausen as quarterback, the offense will become predictable to the
Raiders defense. With Clausen you can expect a lot of hand-offs to Forte and
plenty of short passes.
The Raiders
defense is no Seattle defense but it will be enough to stop Clausen and the
Bears from winning their first game of the season.
