Buccaneers vs. Bears

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers got a huge victory last week on the road over the Washington Redskins 27-7 and the Chicago Bears snapped a three game losing streak with a win at home over the Vikings.  Former Bears head coach Lovie Smith leads the Buccaneers into Solider Field.

So there is a revenge factor involved in this game as well.  And former Bears QB Josh McCown will be starting for the Bucs.  But where the Bucs snuck up on the Redskins last week, the Bears come into this game knowing what the they are capable of.  I think it will be close but the Bears will end up with the win at home.   NFL Picks
