FOXBORO - Reasons the Bears will win...

1) The Patriots wideouts have shown time and again they struggle getting quick separation from corners. Charles Tillman and Nathan Vasher are decent ones who play up in your grill. Combining their physicality with their pass rush, Tom Brady's in for a day of tough throws.

2) This game could come down to special teams play and the Bears have made a ton of big plays in the return game this season. Coincidentally, the Pats have allowed some long returns. Now New England's normal punter, Josh Miller, is on IR and Ken Walter, a former nondescript booter, is back to do the punting.

3) New England has lost three games at home this year, all against decent teams Chicago fits that description.
