INDIANAPOLIS -- The Chicago Bears sure know how to put a destroy Indianapolis big days.Eight years ago, they dominated the Colts on Lucas Oil Stadiums opening night. Four years ago, they ruined Andrew Lucks NFL debut. Another win Sunday at Indianapolis could produce an even more devastating blow to the Colts plan -- and they know it.We are going to keep working to try to dig ourselves out of this hole, thats all you can do, Colts coach Chuck Pagano said.The stakes couldnt be higher for the Colts (1-3).Just five weeks after team owner Jim Irsay expressed hope of making the playoffs, fans are already discussing whether a fourth loss in five weeks could force a coaching change, a front office change or both. The same problems that cost them in 2015 are back.A rebuilt offensive line has allowed a league-high 15 sacks. The revamped defense has yielded 31.3 points over the first four weeks. Opposing quarterbacks are completing 68.1 percent of their passes and Luck has accounted for five turnovers. Somewhere among the dropped passes, the constant penalties and the missing pass rush, everyone is on cleanup duty.Dropped passes are tough. False starts are tough. Bad throws are tough. Ive not had a problem of not getting mad at a guy enough where I had to go yell at a guy for dropping a ball, Luck said. Its a problem when you feel like effort isnt there and thats certainly never been the case (here).Could the matchup with the Bears (1-3) be just what the Colts need?Chicago is likely to be without starting quarterback Jay Cutler for the third straight week, leading receiver Kevin White landed on injured reserve earlier this week, and the defense is allowing 123.5 yards rushing.But the Bears do have something working in their favor: a little momentum. Brian Hoyer, Cutlers replacement, snapped a three-game losing streak last week, and now Chicago returns to a city in which it has never lost.I think everybody was pretty disappointed in how we performed in Dallas the week prior (to last), coach John Fox said. I was pretty pleased with the guys focus and how they executed against Detroit on Sunday. In this league, its what have you done for me lately.Something the Colts know all too well.Were going to be all right, Luck said. Were a good football team. We practice well. Well play well.Here are some other things to watch Sunday:COLTS CHANGES: Indy cut two defensive starters Tuesday. What it will do at cornerback is clear. Projected starters, Vontae Davis and Patrick Robinson, will reclaim their jobs. The question is what happens at inside linebacker. After releasing leading tackler Sio Moore, Indy plans to use a committee of Josh McNary, Antonio Morrison and perhaps safety Clayton Geathers. Indy also could start in the no-huddle on offense.FREEMANS RETURN: Indy allowed inside linebacker Jerrell Freeman to walk away in free agency after last season. Now, at a time when the Colts could really use Freeman, hell be on the Bears sideline. Freeman said all the right things all week, saying he never took the Colts decision personally. Now, hell get a chance to let his play speak volumes.RUNNING UPHILL: Colts running back Frank Gore moved into 10th place on the NFLs career rushing list last week and needs 20 yards to pass Jim Brown (12,312 yards). That undoubtedly will be a huge moment in Gores career. Hes also hoping to end Indys 54-game streak without a 100-yard rusher.WHITE OUT: With White out and Eddie Royal battling a calf injury, whoever starts at quarterback will need Cameron Meredith and Josh Bellamy to play well. Sure, the Bears have Alshon Jeffrey on one side. But if Royal cant play -- and he didnt practice Wednesday -- Meredith and Bellamy have to do better than they have so far. Meredith has six catches for 52 yards. Bellamy hasnt caught a pass.MATHIS WATCH: Colts outside linebacker Robert Mathis has struggled this season. In four games, he has 10 tackles, one quarterback hit and no sacks. Some wonder if Mathis is starting to show his age at 35 years old. Pagano still believes in his best pass rusher, saying Mathis could break out at any time. The Colts need him to make an impact now.---Online:AP NFL website: www.pro32.ap.org and www.twitter.com/AP-NFL NMD Buy Australia . Despite dominating possession, Schalke needed an own goal from Nicolas Hoefler for the breakthrough a minute before the interval. The Freiburg midfielder misjudged Jefferson Farfans corner and bundled the ball into his own net. NMD Shoes Wholesale .ca. Kerry, Just watched the shootout in the Coyotes/Leafs game and I have to ask, why was the James van Riemsdyk goal allowed to count? All of the video replays we were shown on TV were inconclusive about whether the puck had entirely crossed the line or not. http://www.nmdaustraliasale.com/ultra-boost-shoes-australia/4.html . Perhaps Carroll was so prepared for a break because he believes there is very little the Seattle Seahawks need heading into the off-season. "I dont see anything that we need to add. We just have to get better," Carroll said. NMD R1 Womens Sale .
