• Urlacher: Don't play if you don't want a concussion

  November 15, 2012

  

  Chicago Bears All-Pro linebacker Brian Urlacher isn't doing anything to help the NFL with it's "player safety" image and war against concussion related lawsuits. 

  When asked today about the NFL's concussion problem he responded with the following:

  "If you don't want to play and get concussed, then don't play. "It's your career, it's your life.

  "You have to make that decision on your own."

  Concussions are certainly one of the main topics of discussion as the Bears prepare to face the 49ers. Both starting QB's Jay Cutler and Alex Smith respectively, were forced to leave last week's games due to concussion and their status for this week is up in the air. 

  While I agree to a point with Urlacher, he's doing no one any favors by speaking out about it. Although he was asked, and I certainly respect the candor.

• Ndamukong Suh Voted "Least Liked" in the NFL

  October 24, 2012

  

  Lions controversial defender, Ndamukong Suh has been voted the NFL's least liked player according to a fan poll conducted by Neilsen and E-Poll. Suh finished last with a mere 19% positive rating. Not surprisingly, Chicago Bears QB, Jay Cutler was not far behind finishing in 2nd place with only 22%. Quite ironic given their linkage due to what some call a questionable tackle by Suh on Cutler on Monday Night Football this week. Mike Vick rounded put the bottom 3 with 23%. I'm actually surprised Suh finished below either of the two QBs. And if things continue along the current path, Cam Newton may not be far behind.

• Rob Ryan Wishes Chuck Pagano Well on MNF

  October 01, 2012

  

  News came out this morning that Indianapolis Colts Head Coach, Chuck Pagano, had been hospitalized and is being treated for Leukemia. Rob Ryan, Dallas Cowboys Defensive Coordinator sent Pagano ("Pags") well wishes in the Cowboys' MNF matchup against the Bears.

  As you can see in the photo above, Ryan sends Pags a message on the play call sheet that coaches utilize on the sidelines during the games. Ryan and Pagano spent time together in Oakland on the defensive staff from 2004-2008.

  Once again, best wishes to Coach Pagano as he battles this disease.

  On a lighter note, Rob Ryan also advises us not to mess with Texas....
