It's Week 2 and our Live Blog is arguably more live than ever. The Bears once again find themselves playing on primetime, under the lights, which is spectacular for the page views. The Seahawks are in town and both teams are looking for their first win of the season. Khalil Mack and Allen Robinson are making their Soldier Field debuts. Roquan Smith might get his first NFL start? Things are happening, friends.
As always, J.J. Stankevitz and John Mullin will be your eyes and ears from Soldier Field; give 'em a follow. Lorin Cox's tweets are also worth your time.
