Defensive coordinators in Minnesota, Detroit and Green Bay can no longer sit back and wait for Cutler to throw interceptions.<\/p>\n<p>With the mad professor now calling the shots on offense, it\u2019s very bad news for running back Matt Forte. RBs used to call the shots in a division that once was home to the likes of Barry Sanders, but no more. Forte dipped from 1,239 yards as the feature back in his rookie season to 929 last season. This season he\u2019ll get the ball only if Martz needs a bathroom break.<\/p>\n<p>To be fair, Cutler\u2019s 26-interception season wasn\u2019t the only fly in the ointment last season. The defense also stepped in it quite a bit, too. Chicago was especially inept defensively in division games \u2013 the fewest points the Bears allowed in any NFC North game was 21. Lance Briigs was a standout at linebacker, but the backers never really recovered after Brian Urlacher went down.<\/p>\n<p>Smith chose to rush four linemen, and while the Bears did get to the QB 41 times, it too often left the DBs to fend for themselves. Julius Peppers should help in the pressure department, if the mood hits him often enough.<\/p>\n<p><strong>THE WAY IT LOOKS NOW<\/strong> \u2013 If nothing else, the Bears will be unpredictable offensively. But what happens when the winds start howling in November and December?<\/p>\n<p>The final four games of the season \u2013 home against New England, at Minnesota, home against the Jets and at Green Bay \u2013 are nasty. And three of the four will be outdoors.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Next Up: <a href=\"\/blog\/nfl\/2010-bengals-season-win-total-odds-prediction-160710\/\"><strong>Cincinnati Bengals<\/strong><\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Ready to start\u00a0<a title=\"NFL Gambling Online\" href=\"\/blog\/category\/nfl\/\" target=\"_blank\">NFL Gambling Online<\/a> today?<\/p>\n<h3><a href=\"https:\/\/www.capperspicks.com\/go\/bovada\">CLICK HERE TO JOIN JUSTBET.COM &#8211; ONE OF OUR TOP RATED ONLINE SPORTSBOOKS &#8211; HUGE SIGN UP BONUS FOR NFL BETTING ONLINE<\/a><\/h3>\n<p><strong><\/strong><br \/>\n<strong><em>Lawrence Paul is a regular contributor to the Cappers Picks Blog, and is a free-lance gambling and travel writer from Massachusetts.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Quick article by Lawrence Paul detailing the Chicago Bears 2010 Season win total odds for over under nfl betting futures&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":80,"featured_media":23986,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[15],"tags":[31126,31127,30723,28378,15832,15833,15834,15835,15836,31128,1652,31129,3023,826,14500,15831,12419,31130,14495],"class_list":["post-23985","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-nfl","tag-2010-bears-season-win-total-odds","tag-2010-nfl-football-future-lines","tag-2010-2011","tag-28378","tag-bears-odds","tag-bears-odds-to-win-nfc-north","tag-bears-picks","tag-bears-predictions","tag-bears-win-total-lines","tag-bears-wins-2010","tag-chicago-bears","tag-chicago-bears-predictions-2010","tag-football-predictions","tag-nfl-future-odds","tag-nfl-over-under-betting","tag-odds-chicago-bears-season","tag-overunder-season-win-totals","tag-overunder-wins-predictions","tag-season-win-total-odds"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/capperspicks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/23985","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/capperspicks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/capperspicks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/capperspicks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/80"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/capperspicks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=23985"}],"version-history":[{"count":4,"href":"https:\/\/capperspicks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/23985\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":23988,"href":"https:\/\/capperspicks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/23985\/revisions\/23988"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/capperspicks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/23986"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/capperspicks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=23985"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/capperspicks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=23985"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/capperspicks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=23985"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
