   I had to let two or three days settle in for the effect of Chicago's opening day victory over Indy to settle in. 

    Now that they're up I can say that its going to be a pleasant surprise of a season.

     Da Bears!!!  Yep. A bit premature to say that after one game hunh? Not really. Last season the Bears beat the Packers twice though the Pack were a far superior team. The Bears have consistently beat the Packers since Lovie has been coach. I don't expect the Pack to get sweep by the Bears again this season, but I could see a split between the two teams.
