CHICAGO -- Picked up some interesting tidbits after going through both the Bears' and Seahawks' game notes: We all agree Jay Cutler's first half against Green Bay was a disaster. But here are Cutler's numbers in the past six quarters -- 386 yards, three touchdowns, one interception and a completion percentage of 69.2. For all you Robbie Gould doubters out there -- the Bears' place-kicker is 20-of-21 (.952) in the last two minutes or in overtime. Not only is Gould accurate (86.3 percent lifetime), he's also clutch. After watching Jeff Reed miss those two late field goals last week, aren't you glad Gould is on the Bears? Something has to give this week; the Bears are 31st in run offense (64.5) and Seattle is 26th in run defense (166.5) -- thank you 49ers running back Frank Gore. Qwest Field is known as one of the toughest road venues in the NFL. Since 2005, opposing teams have committed a league-high 82 false starts. That averages out to 2.49 per...

The Drive of the Game

I was nervous yesterday.  As nervous as I've been during a Bears football game in an awful long time.  While I paced ferociously around the pool table at Josie Wood's, surrounded by twenty or so friends, Jay Cutler showed no signs of nervousness.  Knowing he was coming off the worst performance of his football-playing career, he was calm.  In front of...

Mondays Are Always Better After A Bears Win

Sunday got off to a pretty rocky start for me as I was facing Tennessee's Chris Johnson in my fantasy league this week, and well, he destroyed me. I figured things were only going to get worse with the Bears taking on the defending champs at Soldier Field later in the afternoon but instead I was witness to the first win of the Jay Cutler Era in Chicago.Before the game started Lovie Smith said

Bears Unlock Forte-Knox and Find Gould!

Memo to Nation's headline writers: There. To the best of my knowledge, I got in the first egregious play on words using all three of these players. I know the names Knox and Gould have been gnawing at you. But it's over now. So let's get past it all you "Punsters of the Midway," and talk football. _____ I know there are a lot of Chicago fans out there who read that headline and...

Chicago Bears Report Card: Week Two Vs Pittsburgh Steelers

So it was an ugly win, but I will take it. First off, "Good as Gould" is the greatest clutch kicker in Chicago Bears history. The man is money... Takes notes Jeff Reed. Second, whatever was up with Soldier Field, either they need to fix the turf or the Bears should have been wearing longer cleats because people were slipping and sliding as if they were on an ice rink. Third, THAT...
