Tampa Bay Buccaneers Vs. Chicago Bears - Stats and Injury Report

These two teams are pretty much evenly matched. The Bears have an edge on D and the Buc have an edge on the offensive side of the ball, but both teams operate the same. They rely heavily on defense and the run game and whatever they can get from the pass game is a bonus.


Team Stats - Game Averages

Pts Yrds Pass Rush
Off 23.0 287.5 (24th) 138.5 (27th) 149.0 (9th)
Def 16.5 254.5 (6th) 171.0 (11th) 83.5 (8th)


Team Stats - Game Averages

Pts Yrds Pass Rush
Off 22.0 331.5 (12th) 176.5 (16th) 155.0 (7th)
Def 16.5 336.0 (23rd) 233.0 (23rd) 103.0 (15th-T)


The Bears have an important piece on the list, Devin Hester, but he should be available if only for limited duty. Tampa Bay on the other hand looks to have half their team on the injured report.
