Chicago implements a base 4-3 defense under the tutelage of second-year defensive coordinator Mel Tucker. The secondary has been badly exposed in the passing game, surrendering 8.0 yards per attempt (5th-worst in the NFL). Up front, however, is where the Bears can disrupt an air attack. In Jay Ratliff, Jared Allen, and Willie Young, Chicago’s in-and-out pass rush can wreak havoc upon opposition pockets.
 
Plus bonus Willie Young jawing at Tom Brady footage from a preseason game. Lionstown!

Big challenge for Solder and Vollmer. Hopefully, with Stork & Connelly back, the interior will stymie Ratliff. But Solder, especially, seems vulnerable to a guy like Allen.
