Alshon Jeffery loses his temper, again

Via DraftAce  |  August 20, 2012
Chicago Bears 2nd-round Alshon Jeffery was ejected from his final collegiate game for fighting with Nebraska conerback Alfonzo Dennard. On Saturday, in just his second preseason game, he was again mixed up in an altercation with Redskins cornerback DeAngelo Hall. Jeffery was called for unsportsmanlike conduct on the play. Penalties are part of the game, but Jeffery has shown a tendency...

Chicago Bears Film Evaluation: Gabe Carimi

Via Midway Illustrated  |  August 20, 2012
The more film I watch on Gabe Carimi the more concerned I am with him in pass protection.  We are consistently told that Carimi's knee is 100-percent healthy, and given that he played well into the second quarter I assume the Bears are preparing him for the season. However what I consistently see from the Bears first round draft pick from a year ago, is an OT that can be...

Chicago Bears Roster Battle: Chris Spencer and Chilo Rachal

Via Midway Illustrated  |  August 20, 2012
The battle to be the starting left guard for the Chicago Bears is going to come down to the final days of the preseason.  During my film evaluation of the offensive line, I intently focused in on Chilo Rachal and incumbent Chris Spencer.  Spencer is the starter for the time being based on the fact he was one of the best performing offensive linemen of 2011. He was the starting...

Cutler says Bears offense still has work to do

Via AP on Fox  |  August 19, 2012
Jay Cutler realizes the product is not quite finished. As potent as the Chicago Bears' offense looked in Saturday's 33-31 preseason win over Washington, he sees work to do. He responded ''two preseason games'' when asked how far the offense has come. The question is: How far can it go? The Bears (tied for 11th in the AP Pro32) believe they now have the...

With Podlesh hurt, Bears trying out veteran punter

Via Pro Sports Daily  |  August 21, 2012
Bears punter Adam Podlesh is out for the rest of the preseason with a hip flexor injury but expects to play Week 1 against the Indianapolis Colts. Podlesh said trainers have told him he should be able to play Sept. 9. The Bears have only one other punter on the roster -- undrafted rookie Ryan Quigley from Boston College. The Bears are reportedly planning to work out veteran...

Bears' Hardin goes on IR

Via AP on Fox  |  August 20, 2012
The Chicago Bears placed rookie safety Brandon Hardin on injured reserve and also put wide receiver Johnny Knox on the physically unable to perform list on Sunday. Hardin, the Bears' third-round draft pick, injured his neck against Washington on Aug. 18. Hardin was taken off the field on a cart after he lay motionless for almost 10 minutes following a tackle on Logan Paulsen...

Chicago Bears Film Evaulation: Defensive Tackles Continue to Dominate

Via Midway Illustrated  |  August 20, 2012
There is not a more apt description of the Chicago Bears top four defensive tackle rotation in their game against Redskins, than dominant.  Henry Melton, Matt Toeaina, Nate Collins, and Brian Price dominated in one form or another on Saturday night. In total the four man DT rotation had a total of 16 disruptions, pressures, tackles or sacks in this game.  The Redskins ran 65...

Peppers Donates $250,000 to UNC Scholarship ProgramChicago Bears defensive lineman Julius Peppers has donated $250,000 to a University of North Carolina scholarship fund in what looks to be an attempt to help repair his damaged image. This past week hasn’t been too kind to the former Tar Heel. The Pro-Bowl defensive lineman’s college transcript was leaked on the UNC school website...

These Are Tough Times For Brian Urlacher

Via With Leather  |  August 20, 2012
Earlier this year, it was “reported” that Chicago Bears linebacker Brian Urlacher had added to his arsenal of terrible girlfriends when he started shacking up with former Playboy Playmate and noted nutjob Jenny McCarthy. And the only other name that I even need to include on that list of girlfriends is Paris Hilton in order to describe how poor this dude’s taste is. If he rebounds...

Safety concerns piling up for Bears

Chicago Bears week 2 success; overshadowed by injuries

Via The Sports Bank  |  August 21, 2012
Brandon Hardin is the most recent Bear to go down with an injury. Following Saturday’s performance by the starting unit, Bears fans everywhere should be exhaling a huge sigh of relief this week. Cutler-to-Marshall was finally on display, the line actually protected Jay (gasp!), and Israel Idonije led the first team defense in their solid effort to contain RG3. Instead, fans and...
