2014 Jets Opponents: Chicago Bears

At 33, Calvin Pace is still as dominant as he was when we last played Chicago back in 2010. He's coming off a personal best 10.0-sack season.

With 69 combined Jets and Bears points heading into the fourth quarter, who would've thought that Nick Folk's field goal eight seconds in would be the final scoring play of the game? The Jets were four points short 14:52 later and fell to Chicago 38-34 at Soldier Field.

Head coach Rex Ryan's father Buddy won Super Bowl XX as defensive coordinator of the Bears.

CB Antonio Cromartie will have a challenge on his hands next season tasked with guarding either Brandon Marshall or Alshon Jeffery. The two wide receivers combined for 189 receptions, 2,716 yards and 19 touchdowns before both ending their seasons in Hawaii.

Next season will be LB David Harris' eighth with the Green & White. He'll have to contain RB Matt Forte who was second in the NFL last season with 1,339 rushing yards.

QB Mark Sanchez put up 269 yards, completed 24 of 37 passes and orchestrated six scoring drives, but it wasn't enough in the end as we lost 38-34 on 12/26/10.

C Nick Mangold's most recent trip to Hawaii was just a bit warmer than this 33-degree day at Chicago four years ago.

WR Santonio Holmes caught four passes for 69 yards and our lone receiving touchdown during our 2010 loss to the Bears. After an injury-plagued 2013 campaign, he'll look to bounce back next season.

If next year's game between the Jets and Bears comes down to a battle of the trenches, we'll take our chances with a D-Line consisting of Muhammad Wilkerson, Damon "Snacks" Harrison and Sheldon Richardson.

No. 23 Devin Hester set a career high with four receiving touchdowns in 2010, but as of 2013 he's no longer being utilized outside of a return role. He has 13 punt return TDs and five kick return TDs in his career.
