Tomorrow is going to be an interesting day for Chicago Bear fans. They are going to see them play the undefeated Tennessee Titans at home. This season the Titans are off to their best start ever in franchise history. The Titans are currently 8-0 and they are the only team in the NFL undefeated. The Bears on the other hand are 5-3 and currently number one in their division. What I find interesting is the similarity between the two teams. Both teams started the season with a new quarterback and both teams have rookie running backs, that have played exceptionally well so far this season.
The Bears this season decided to shake things up a bit and gave Kyle Orton the starting QB position, and let me start off by saying that they made the right move. So far this season he has a whopping ten touchdowns and over 1700 passing yards. Orton has proven that he can lead his team and that he is comfortable at his new position. However, in last weeks game against Detroit the star QB left the game early due to an ankle injury. It is unclear if he will be playing in tomorrow's game. If he doesn't play that is a major advantage for the Titans. Now on to the Titan's QB Kerry Collins, he has played fairly well this season with three touchdowns and just over 1200 passing yards.
Now lets talk about both teams running backs. I'll start off with the Titans rookie running back Chris Johnson has done a good job this season. With five touchdowns and over 700 rushing yards this season, he has shown that he means business. It's going to be interesting to see what he can do against the Bear's defense who only allows roughly 80 rushing yards a game. On the other side the Bears rookie running back Matt Forte leads the team in rushing and receptions. However, the game tomorrow will not be all about the offense. Both teams have great defenses and it is likely that the game tomorrow will be a low scoring game. Both teams are pretty evenly matched, so tomorrow's game is going to be a must see.

I watched the game today. I wasnt surprised with the outcome but I hoped for better. I like to think if Grossman wouldn't have played they would have done better.
