Next for Seahawks | Chicago Bears
Seattle at Chicago, 5:15 p.m. Sunday
TV: Ch. 5. Radio: KIRO (710 AM).
Coach: Lovie Smith, third season.
Players to watch
QB Rex Grossman: If he can stay healthy, the Bears appear to have a quarterback who can bring stability to the position. He's fifth in the NFL in passing yards with 829 and has the fifth-best rating, 100.9.
LBs Brian Urlacher and Lance Briggs: These two are as physical as any linebacker tandem in the NFL, and lead the Bears in tackles.
WRs Bernard Berrian and Muhsin Muhammad: Chicago is known more for its defense, but these two make the Bears more formidable on offense.
PR Devin Hester: Second-round pick is a threat to break a long return whenever he touches the ball.
