Though the scenario comes earlier in the season, there's definitely a connection to be made between the 1985 Chicago Bears team that found its only blemish of the season in Miami, and this seemingly unstoppable version of the Saints. And, just like in 1985, this Dolphins club might be suited better than any other to beat up on that "team to beat". Miami's ground control |

| Atlanta, GA (MySportsbook) - Matt Ryan threw for two scores and orchestrated the game-winning drive late in the fourth, capped by a Michael Turner touchdown run, and Atlanta held on for a 21-14 win against the Chicago Bears at the Georgia Dome. Ryan also threw two picks in what was a sloppy game on both sides for the better part of 50 minutes, but came through when it counted down the stretch. The second-year pro was coming off a career-best 329-yard performance in last Sunday's 45-10 shellacking of San F |

| Tampa, FL (MySportsbook) - The Tampa Bay Buccaneers dealt defensive end Gaines Adams to the Chicago Bears on Friday in exchange for a 2010 second- round draft pick. The Bucs selected Adams with the fourth overall pick in the 2007 Draft, and the third-year player is coming off a 2008 season in which he started all 16 games and recorded 6 1/2 sacks. The Clemson product, figured to be expendable due to Tampa Bay's depth at defensive end, has recorded 124 tackles and 13 1/2 sacks in 37 career games -- 29 star |

ATLANTA (AP) -Jay Cutler and Matt Ryan have quickly passed their way into the records of two franchises known for running the ball. Cutler has a 100-plus quarterback rating in three straight games, a first for the Chicago Bears in 45 years - since Rudy Bukich in 1964. In his first season with the Bears (3-1) following a trade from Denver, Cutler has completed 64.3 percent of his passes, which would set a Chicago record. ``Jay of course is doing a super job of taking care of the ball and just really |

But when Hasselbeck is left speechless by Schmitt's self-inflicted bloodbath in the spirit of team motivation just before kickoff, it shows a depth of grit more synonymous with Dick Butkus' Chicago Bears or Ray Nitschke's Green Bay Packers. ``It probably wasn't smart,'' Hasselbeck said of Schmitt's stunt, which the second-year wild man also did while at West Virginia University. ``But I really think the mindset of our team has changed.''
