KEY MATCHUP

After struggling to contain Patriots linebacker Matt Judon last week the Bears have an even biggest challenge with Cowboys linebacker Micah Parsons.

The 6-3, 245-pound Parsons had 13 sacks as a rookie, not only winning the Defensive Rookie of the Year Award, but finishing second to Steelers linebacker T.J. Watt for the Defensive Player of the Year Award. Parsons has picked up where he left off, with eight sacks in seven games.
