On Monday night the Chicago Bears were embarrassed on National television and not because they lost the game to a better Detroit Lions’ team but because they were very undisciplined in doing so. Timeouts in the first half were poorly managed, challenges were wasted, and The Penalty Flag was thrown repeatedly for false starts. Let’s be honest, Lovie Smith’s and Rod Marinelli’s...

Waddle, who works for ESPN 1000 in the Windy City and NFL Network, teed up Meriweather for what he deems dirty play earlier this week. "I don't approve of the way he plays the...

He is the one who coined Calvin Johnson “Megatron”. Now he is wondering why he didn’t get that type of love when he was in the D.
Williams, who was the Lions’ first-round draft pick in 2004 and was traded to the Cowboys during the 2008 season, said something is different in Detroit these days. Williams remarked after the game...

They get after the football and create manageable opportunities for their offense to turn into scores. That has not been the case thus far in 2011. The Bears have let up at least 24 [...]

The Bears’ 24-13 loss Monday to the Lions wasn’t coach Lovie Smith’s finest moment. But a botched opportunity in the first quarter was particularly frustrating for him.
