Super Bowl runners-up Seattle Seahawks (0-2) are struggling right now and they are set to snag that elusive first victory over fellow winless team Chicago Bears (0-2) in their maiden home game of the 2015 NFL season at the CenturyLink Field on Sunday.
Seattle dropped a 27-17 decision in the hands of the Green Bay Packers last Sunday as Aaron Rodgers outplayed Russell Wilson in the fourth quarter.
The Seahawks started the final quarter ahead by one, 17-16, but went scoreless in the payoff period while Rodgers led his squad to 11 points en route to the win, as reported by Yahoo Sports.
Head coach Pete Carroll expects Wilson and his crew to bounce back in this home game versus the Bears on Week 3.
Chicago was dismantled by the Arizona Cardinals in their Week 2 game, 48-23, as the Bears' defense were unable to stop Carson Palmer from passing for four touchdowns.
What's worse is that starting quarterback Jay Cutler got his hamstring pulled right before halftime after attempting to tackle Cardinal safety Tony Jefferson following an interception, as per Fansided.
Jimmy Clausen is set to start against a tough Seahawks defense and it looks like Seattle should have this in the bag.
Prediction: Seahawks win, 28-14
