Matt Forte has just one TD this pro football betting season.
On the other side it is Atlanta quarterback Matt Ryan who is rolling along. He threw for 329 yards in a rout of San Francisco last week. Wide receiver Roddy White had a franchise-record 210 yards in the pro football betting slaughter. Michael Turner is having a very good year again as he already has 323 yards rushing in four games.

The Falcons are 9-1 at home since the start of last season. They defeated the Bears 22-20 last year in Week 6. Chicago has a 12-11 lead in the series against the Falcons.
