8. Chicago Bears (Last week: 11)
The Bears’ opportunistic defense has been the difference in the team’s last two victories, and the offense did just enough to get by a very good Jets D. More interesting is that Jay Cutler didn’t have to be great in order for Chicago to get to 2-1.
What to know: Bears’ first-round cornerback Kyle Fuller has registered more interceptions in the NFL (three) than he ever did in a season at Virginia Tech.
