BEARS ON OFFENSE

-

Last week, the Bears had trouble with Green Bay’s 3-4 scheme, which is similar to the Cardinals’. The Cardinals need another dominant performanc­e out of their defensive line, which they received last week. End Calais Campbell disrupted the Lions offense all day, and end Darnell Dockett played one of his better games of the season. Cornerback Patrick Peterson’s workload doesn’t ease any this week. He goes from covering the Lions’ Calvin Johnson to the Bears’ Brandon Marshall. Nose tackle Dan Williams is expected back from a hamstring injury, which means the Cardinals will be almost at full strength. They’ll need every man because this unit must not only stop the Bears, it needs to come up with some turnovers if the Cardinals are to win. Edge: Cardinals
