Matchup: Chicago Bears vs. Pittsburgh Steelers

The 2-0 Bears face the 0-2 Steelers. Both teams have seen completely different results after their first two weeks of the 2013 NFL season. The Bears have things going for them so far in 2013. They are at the top of the NFC North. Jay Cutler, Brandon Marshall and Martellus Bennett are driving the offense that's averaging 27.5 points per game, sixth best in the NFL.

The Steelers are struggling. There is nothing intimidating about their game in 2013. Felix Jones has been unable to get the running game going in Pittsburgh and Ben Roethlisberger is truly missing playmaker, Mike Wallace.

Roethlisberger has completed just over fifty percent of his passes, but he has only thrown for two touchdowns and 442 yards in the first two weeks of the season. Emmanuel Sanders and Antonio Brown are doing their best to provide Big Ben with targets week after week. They have combined for 23 catches, 263 yards with no touchdowns.

The Bears have a chance to build a bigger lead in the division as the Green Bay Packers and Minnesota Vikings both lost their Week 3 games. A loss would keep the Bears in first place, but you better believe they will be going for the win.

The Steelers would be 0-3 with a loss, but a victory would tie them with the Cleveland Browns and would keep them just half a game behind the Baltimore Ravens. However, the Bears are the better team in this matchup. It all depends if the Steelers are going to make it a close game or not.
