Chicago Bears Week 10: What To Look For

The Bears secondary must slow down Jordy Nelson and Randall Cobb.
In their first meeting, Packers wide receivers Jordy Nelson and Randall Cobb ran wild over the Bears secondary. Those two were a puzzle that none of the Bears could figure out.
Nelson had 7 catches for 113 yards and two touchdowns, while Cobb had 10 catches for 108 yards, and he had two touchdowns as well.
The Bears have the same secondary they had in the first game, so I don’t think there will be any difference there.
This is where coaching will come in. I know, I know, what coaching, with Mel Tucker as the defensive coordinator?
Tucker has to coach the game of his career. He has to bring in the pressure from the linebackers or the safeties to break Rodgers’ rhythm. If Nelson and Cobb are allowed to run around they are good enough to get open, and Rodgers is good enough to find them.
The secondary needs help, and Tucker needs a good gameplan for once.
