that defensive success played a big part in the team taking the NFC North title.It also played a big part in the Broncos targeting and eventually hiring Vic Fangio as their new head coach. The Bears responded by hiring former Colts head coach Chuck Pagano as the new defensive coordinator.The team’s players are in their second week of working with Pagano and two key members of the defense shared the feeling that not much will change. Linebacker Roquan Smith said it will be an “easy transition” from one coach to another and defensive tackle Akiem Hicks had a similar take on the direction of the defense.“No step back http://www.packerslockerroom.com/authentic-jk-scott-jersey , no step back; we’re always going forward,” Hicks said, via the . “There’s always going to be an adjustment period anytime you have new people in the building. I don’t think we have to take a step back. We just have to hit it harder.”The Bears lost a couple of defensive backs to free agency in safety Adrian Amos and cornerback Bryce Callahan Kevin King Jersey , but the other regulars from last season are back. Safety Ha Ha Clinton-Dix and cornerback Buster Skrine were signed to fill those roles and help ensure that the defense doesn’t miss a beat in Chicago. It’s possible — albeit unlikely — that neither the Green Bay Packers nor Detroit Lions could have 46 healthy players on Sunday for their week five matchup at Ford Field. On the two teams’ Friday injury reports, there were a total of 19 players listed: nine for Green Bay and ten for Detroit.Of those players, four are listed as out Marquez Valdes-Scantling Jersey White , with Randall Cobb the only Packer sure to miss the contest. The Lions have a pair of starters down: defensive end Ziggy Ansah and guard T.J. Lang.Meanwhile, 15 players are questionable, including a new name for the Packers’ report: cornerback Bashaud Breeland Womens Corey Linsley Jersey , who now appears on the report with a hamstring issue. The Packers may still have the services of wideouts Davante Adams and Geronimo Allison, as both were in the questionable group as well. Finally, the Packers had four players on practice reports who did not get a final injury status and thus are likely to play on Sunday. That group consists of right tackle Bryan Bulaga http://www.packerslockerroom.com/authentic-marcedes-lewis-jersey , tight end Jimmy Graham, cornerback Kevin King, and quarterback Aaron Rodgers.Here’s a look at the complete reports for both teams.Packers Injury ReportOUTWR Randall Cobb (hamstring)QuestionableWR Davante Adams (calf)CB Jaire Alexander (groin)WR Geronimo Allison (concussion/hamstring)CB Bashaud Breeland (hamstring)S Kentrell Brice (ankle)G Justin McCray (shoulder)G Lucas Patrick (back)S Jermaine Whitehead (back)Lions Injury ReportOUTDE Ezekiel Ansah (shoulder)G T.J.
