The PFW Chicago staff predictions for Bears against New York Giants at MetLife Stadium on Sunday:
Hub Arkush:
Remember the last time the Bears had a bye, they were coming off their most impressive game in at least six seasons — a 48-10 shellacking of the Bucs — and then took a week off and came back flat and overconfident early in Miami, never quite recovered and fell to an inferior team, 31-28.
Granted, the Bears had just a mini-bye after playing on Thanksgiving Day, but will they have learned from the Miami experience?
