Falcons & Bears in Prime Time

This much anticipated NFC matchup will draw a big television audience on Monday Night as the Atlanta Falcons (2-1) will travel to Soldier Field to take on the Chicago Bears (2-1). Both teams will be missing their number one options out of the backfield as the Falcons have Montee Ball on bye and the Bears will be without Zac Stacy. The Falcons will start RB tandem Frank Gore and Rookie Carlos Hyde. For Atlanta to be successful they will need more production than the 2 total points they received from their backfield in Week 3. The Bears will plug in RB's Justin Forsett and Lamar Miller for a more traditional backfield look. WR Pierre Garcon has Chicago off to a sluggish start with only 2 total fantasy points early on. Young talented WR's TY Hilton and Randall Cobb will look to pick up the slack for Chicago.

We caught up with Falcons Owner/GM Cody Dudley and asked him about fielding their roster and covering bye weeks in Week 4. "We look forward to seeing what the future of our franchise looks like as Carlos will take the field for us for the first time. He's excited to be out there, and we're excited with what he brings to the table." said Dudley. "We are still undecided at the wide receiver position for this week. As you know Torrey is off to a slow start and with Royal producing and grabbing extra targets he could see some surprise playing time for us. It will truly be a game time decision." added Dudley.

This should be a good one and will shake up the standings in the NFC. Our panel of experts predicted Chicago to defeat Atlanta 93-80. One thing is for sure & that is after Week 4, one of these two teams will be on the heels of the Conference leading Detroit Lions.
