By Ryan Heckman
Heading into a primetime matchup for the second straight week, the Chicago Bears should keep an eye on these five Seattle Seahawks studs.
By now, the sting of defeat should have been put in the rearview. The Chicago Bears are officially on to their next assignment. Monday night, they face off against Russell Wilson and the Seattle Seahawks, who also come into Soldier Field having dropped their season opener.

Week 1, the Seahawks fell to the hands of the Denver Broncos and their stout pass rush featuring All Pro Von Miller. This week, the Seahawks will face yet another stout pass rusher. Khalil Mack, along with Miller, are the top two pass rushers in the game, respectively, and Seattle’s offensive line will have their hands full.
While the Bears are hoping to get similar production out of their front seven as they had in the first half of Week 1, the Seahawks are prepping to try and stop Mack and company. That aspect of the game aside, the Bears will have some tough challenges against Seattle.
The Seahawks may not be the same team they were four or five years ago, but Wilson is still a top quarterback in this league and the defense is still led by Bobby Wagner. Both Wilson and Wagner are obviously guys the Bears need to game plan around, but who else is there?
Seattle’s talent at several positions will be something to watch out for. Here are five players fans should hope the Bears can keep at bay on Monday night.
