Watch Online Chicago Bears vs. Pittsburgh Steelers Live Streaming – NFL Week 3 Betting Preview
The Chicago Bears is looking for their second 3-0 start in the last 4 years, while the Pittsburgh Steelers is hoping to avoid their first 0-3 start since 2000. The Bears visit the Steelers on primetime Sunday night.
The Bears won two real close games to start the year. The first one was a 24-21 win against the Cincinnati Bengals and then in Week 2, a 31-30 victory over the Minnesota Vikings.
Both times, the Bears had to pull off a come-from-behind effort to notch the victory. Chicago trailed Cincinnati, 10-21 middle of the third quarter before the Bears made two touchdowns to get the hard-earned win.
Meanwhile, in the game vs. the Vikings, Chicago trailed Minnesota, 24-30 late in the fourth quarter, but the Bears stole the win with a touchdown 10 seconds left in the game.
Quarterback Jay Cutler threw both game-winning touchdowns in both occasions, and he finished with 542 passing yards, five ouchdowns and three interceptions through two games.
While Cutler and the Bears gutted out the wins, the Steelers are in a 0-2 hole to start the 2013 regular season. The Steelers' offense only produced a total of 19 points, so far—one of the league’s worst and just ahead of the Cleveland Browns (16) and Jacksonville Jaguars (11) in total points scored.
The anaemic offense -- 198.5 passing yards per game (27th) and 37.5 rushing yards per game (31st) reflects Steelers’ quarterback Ben Roethlisberger’s struggles as well. The 31-year-old pro’s QB rating the past two games is at 74.8, his lowest QBR since joining the league in 2004.
