Washington are favourites here, but I think that it is too tough to
judge how they might feel leading up to this game.
They were defeated by the Buffalo Bills in the dying minutes last Sunday,
before the funeral of Sean Taylor, tragically alin during a burglery, which
took place on Monday.

This could have an ulifting effect on the team, however, I feel it more likely
that this will have taken a toll on the team and they are likely to be
indifferent in Friday mornings televised game.

The bears also fell to a final quarter defeat last weekend but Grossman had
his best game pf the season stats wise throwing for near 3000 yards!
He comes up against a defence worse than the Giants, and a few more
connceted passes will see the bears rack up another 20+ point game.

I will also play in the first touchdown market in this game. I'll be backing the
Bears to hit first, and Grossman's main man is Barnard Berrian. I think it more
likely to come through the passing game than the running game. Speicla Tema s with Devin Hester, who has scored 5 returns this season may also struggle against a decent Redskins special teams defence.

BETTING ADVICE
8 POINTS Chicago Total Points +19 @ 5/4 [Stan James]
3 POINTS Chicago Bears Win @ 7/5 [Bet365 / Boylesports]
1 POINT Berrian First TD Scorer @ 12/1 [Stan James]

Just looking at some prices on betfair.

Chicago to win are 2.54, and with +3.5 are 1.86. That seems a hell of a big match odds price when they are odds on with what amounts to a fieldgoal. 2.54 seems a very big price to me with no handicap, if 3.5pts is considered enough to make Chicago favourites

TOTAL LOSS
-12 pts

I'm absolutely wrecking my brain trying to work out what has happened to my Bears team.

An absolutely dismal first half saw us score 0 points.

Followed by a second half in which a series of completely bizarre decisions
left my bets high and dry.

7 points behind with 7 minutes to play. 4th down on the Redskins 3 and we take a field goal which in essence meant we still needed to score a TD, so why not go for it on 4th down.

Then with the clock ticking away after conceeding another TD, we get to the Redskins 5 yard line. A TD and a conversion would have won me my bet, but they decided to kick a field goal with 30 seconds remaining when on the 5 yard line.

It not only ruined my bet, it has left open plenty of abuse from Piggy, and ended our season! I could not be going to bed angrier than what I am!
