It might be must-win territory for the Chicago Bears (0-1) as they host the Arizona Cardinals (1-0) in Week 2 of NFL action on Sunday.
With the Bears having already dropped a home game against Green Bay last weekend, Chicago cant afford to fall into an 0-2 hole with two home conference defeats against them. Although they did positive things against the Packers, the Bears are in danger of getting out to an uninspiring start under first-year coach John Fox.
It will be the Johnson & Johnson show in the backfield for the Cardinals as Andre Ellington will likely miss a second straight week with a knee injury. David Johnson, a rookie out of Northern Iowa, played just five offensive snaps but made one of them count with a 55-yard touchdown reception.
