Thx den, I know its a shty situation. I just did pick up Orton from waivers, Cambell was my QB all year but I think that they will struggle this week with those 2 O linemen out. Anyone have a weather update, i know cold but wind insignificant at the playing field level?

You say there in a soft division, but the strength of schedule speaks for itself, Chicago being 11th while the Saints, 28th

I think the over is a safe bet in this one. I see a score coming on special teams and great starting field position on both ends. I don't believe the weather to be a factor unless there is precipitation. Large play on the over, small play on the saints, the just have more ability to score.

Good Luck all.

Not sure where you get your weather report, but at kickoff temp to be 26 degrees and 1% of rain. But, far from freezing temps. Go to weather.com

Here are my waiver wire options:
 
Garcia who is day to day with a strained calf Vs. Atl and Bulger vs Seattle
 
Also, supposed to be real windy in Cinci on Sunday.

Too late for me to change my mind but interested in what it is. Like I stated earlier I'm not banking on the cold weather factor for the total just thinking the Saints & Bears will utilize their strength in their running game and play conservative. Too much at stake for both teams to make costly mistakes in this game.

Good luck on the over



i hear ya with that logic, but keep in mind that both team are bad vs the pass.  with the saints being a passing team - and the bears stout vs the run, i cant see the saints running much unless they build a double digit lead early.  the bears will feed forte, but will likely also look to exploit the saints poor secondary.

    When the lights are brightest, the playmakers shine.    Everybody makes valid points on both sides for this game.  What i'm looking for is a difference maker.  Somebody who will make something happen that will propel momentum and their team to a victory.  In this one, look no further than Reggie Bush.  Thursday night, nothing else to watch, and Reg will come to play.  Watch for something dynamic.  These next few weeks will be a sprint between the Saints and Cowboys to see who will grab the final playoff spot.  It's going to be fun to watch

NO +3 and the Over

I think it is going to be a shoot out tonight and the Saints are geared to score more.  I don't feel very good about this game though.  It is tough to pick against the Bears when they have beaten up the Saints at home the last 2 years.

Hi all, I Think this game will come down to which team will take good care of the ball and not turn the ball over.. The weather will be a factor but not much, just cold and the wind is about 10 mph. N.O should be prepare for the weather tonigh. So that won't bother brees passing game.. The Bears plays good D at home, safe bet will be the over.. and Bears will win by 3... possible could be a push for tonigh game..

enjoy the game people..!!!

Orton it is. Thats all yous need to know. No doubt he goes 9-28 with 3 picks, 0 TDs and 114 yards. Just dont think Cambell will do much better with the expected wind and 2 o-linemen out.

bears will find themselves in a lot more 3rd down situations than the saints. 
 
saints will convert over a weak defense on short rest.  bears will not be as successful.
 
saints +3 (3 units)
