Feisty Finnegan On The Bears' Radar

The Chicago Bears are trying to shake off a disastrous Week 2 game against the Green Bay Packers. The fallout threatened to become a circus with Jay Cutler right in the middle of it all. This week, the Bears are trying to refocus and get ready for the St. Louis Rams. That starts with a little extra attention on cornerback Cortland Finnegan.

#Bears QB Jay Cutler on #Rams D: "Cortland [Finnegan] does a great job. I think he's the battery for that whole defense."

The Rams defense ought to be relishing the matchup against Chicago after beating RGIII last week. The key to unleashing Finnegan's feistiness will be getting pressure up front against a Bears line that allowed seven sacks last week to the Packers.
