(CBS) Every week during the Bears season, our experts from 670 The Score, CBS2 and WBBM Newsradio 780 & 105.9 FM will provide their weekly picks for the Bears game. This week, there's not much controversy as every expert thinks the Bears will take care of business Sunday against the Colts:

Terry Boers |
| Bears 27, Colts 13 |
Bears 30, Colts 19 |
Bears 33, Colts 23 |
| Bears defense should show strong no matter the well deserved hype of Andrew Luck. Look for the Bears offense to stay grounded, rushing the majority of the time in hopes of getting the preseason MIA running game going. |
The Bears should be able to cruise, despite the uncertainty with Urlacher and Conte. Good early test for Bears' pass protection versus Freeney. Colts will win more than one this year, but it won't be Sunday. |
Bears flash plenty of offensive potential against a 4- or 5-win Indy team, but the defense will struggle just enough against Andrew Luck to make Bears' fans sweat. And they should. |

Bears 27, Colts 17 |
| I think the Bears are in a different class than Indy but they look like they're still a few weeks away from really knowing who they are. Luck is the real deal and won't pull an upset but he will make some plays. |
Bears win in fourth quarter with two field goals. World class look-through game with entire staff entranced with Sept. 13 trek to Cheeseland. |
Andrew Luck shows flashes of the excellence to come, but the Bears control the clock and the tempo with a surprisingly effective run game. Cutler doesn't need to throw for more than 200 yards or so, as the mere threat of Marshall and others opens up the middle. |

| Bears 24, Colts 19 |
Bears 24, Colts 17 |
Bears 31, Colts 13 |
| Interested to see the Bears try to disguise coverages against rookie quarterback Andrew Luck. Freeney/Mathis in the new defense vs Bears' questionable tackles will cause problems. Colts are still bad enough. Bears win. |
The Colts will hang around as both teams show rust, but ultimately the Bears will win on a late touchdown. |
The Bears will give up some big plays to Andrew Luck, but they'll hold the Colts to field goals for the most part. Mike Tice doesn't put too much on film, but Forte and Cutler still find big holes in the Colts' D. |

| Even with Brian Urlacher at less than 100% (if he plays) the Colts' "Luck" will run out against a still very experienced defense. I expect to see a nice debut from the Forte-Bush tandem in the backfield. |
Andrew Luck might have a solid first start in the NFL, but I think the Bears' veteran defense will tighten up in the end. Jay Cutler, Brandon Marshall & Co. will show they're going to be a force to be reckoned with this season. |
"Luck" is with the visitors, and he'll show flashes. But a recharged, more talented home side shouldn't struggle. |
