Game Overview

The Ravens have not tasted consecutive victories over the last two months and hence, would be eager to break the jinx by overcoming the Bears’ challenge at Soldier Field on Sunday. Though the Ravens still had their problems running the ball, along with Joe Flacco struggling, in the last game, they still managed to win 20-17 in overtime against the division-toppers Cincinnati. That win is sure to instill some confidence in the camps of the Ravens, especially with the achievement of having stopped a three-game slide. Though the season is in no way over for the Ravens, they should have understood by now that there is a lot of work still left to be done.

John Harbaugh, the coach of the Ravens, feels that they need to get better with their run game. The few more yards gained against the Bengals counts negligibly as the Ravens were not as successful as they would have wanted themselves to be. Nonetheless, Baltimore could improve against a Chicago Bears team which ranks 31st having given up 129.4 yards per game and having allowed a 100-yard rusher in two consecutive and three among the last four games played.

Meanwhile, Flacco has been able to throw seven touchdowns and also three interceptions in his four games but two of those picks have come only in the last weekend. He had also fumbled and has now been sacked five teams so far in the league.

Where on the one hand, the Baltimore Ravens just cannot afford to get complacent after their last game, the Chicago Bears, on the other hand, would wish for things to be better in their health department. Defensive tackles Melton, Collins and linebacker Williams are all out with injuries, while Briggs and McClellin are currently sidelined due to shoulder and hamstring injuries, respectively. To make matters worse, key cornerback Charles Tillman has been placed on the injured reserve list, while quarterback Jay Cutler might miss this game because of an ankle injury.
