Chicago – Jay Cutler is back. And so are the Chicago Bears (1-1). They beat the Pittsburgh Steelers (1-1) Sunday evening in a thriller.

   Cutler was 27-38 for 236 yards and a touchdown coming off a carrer worst 4 interception game against the Green Bay Packers.

   And the amazing thing: No interceptions by Cutler.

   After going back and forth all game, kicker Robie Gould hit a 44 yard field goal to win the big game over the defending world champions.

   Pittsburgh quarterback Ben Roethlisberger was 23-35 for 221 yards, a touchdown and a interception.

   “We knew Robbie was gonna make it,” Cutler said afterwards, “He’s made them in 5 degree weather, made ‘em in the wind and rain, and we knew he would make it.”

   “He was good as Gould,” said Bears coach Lovie Smith about Robbie.

   Gould out kicked Pittsburgh kicker Jeff Reed easily, who missed 2 possible game winning field goals.

   The Bears are now 1-1 and play at Seattle next week. The Steelers are now 1-1 and play at Cincinati next week.
