Running back Marion Barber has been warned by the NFL about not talking to the media, a Bears media relations spokesman said. Barber, who routinely declines interviews, did not address the media following Sunday's 13-10 overtime loss to the Broncos. His fumble in overtime and decision to step out of bounds late in the fourth quarter proved costly. When approached by the Tribune on Wednesday, Barber said he hadn't decided whether he'd talk following practice.
