MNF Game Thread: Bears host Seahawks to close out week 2

Will Seattle have enough players to field a full roster on Monday night?

If you’re not ready to be done with week two football just yet, fear not as Monday Night Football is almost upon us to wrap up the week. Tonight we have an NFC battle between teams that both lost close games in week one. The Chicago Bears are at home, hosting the battered Seattle Seahawks and looking to bounce back from giving up a 20-point lead to the Green Bay Packers a week ago.

The Seahawks would normally have posed a great challenge in recent years, but departures across the defense and a glut of injuries must have Matt Nagy and Mitchell Trubisky licking their chops for a juicy matchup. Two of Seattle’s best defensive players, linebackers Bobby Wagner and K.J. Wright, are out for the game, along with wideout Doug Baldwin. The secondary is a M*A*S*H unit as well, with three key players either doubtful or questionable for the game.

Tune in for tonight’s game and join us to discuss in the comments.
