Reasons why the Bears are mediocre

Tue, 24 Nov 2009 10:59:07 -0500

CHICAGO -- Football is the ultimate team game. You win as an organization, you lose as an organization. Instead of simply blaming one person (Ron Turner) for the Bears being 20-22 since the Super Bowl, take a step back and look at the big picture: It's been a collective effort, from the front office down to the players. Nobody should be immune from criticism, because everybody played a part in this mess. Here's a list of why the Bears have been a mediocre team going on three se...

BEARS IN BRIEF: Bullocks gets call to boost secondary

Fri, 13 Nov 2009 01:01:00 -0500

SAN FRANCISCO -- Josh Bullocks, signed to be a veteran presence and add some depth to the secondary, was called upon for the first time Thursday night as rookie strong safety Al Afalava was sidelined with a right shoulder injury.

Bullocks starts for Afalava

Thu, 12 Nov 2009 19:30:07 -0500

With the top two strong safeties inactive because of injuries tonight – starter Al Afalava (shoulder) and Kevin Payne (back) -- five-year veteran Josh Bullocks will get his first Bears start. Bullocks was inactive the past two games, but he started 49 games the previous four seasons with the Saints. Tonight’s other inactives are wide receiver Juaquin Iglesias, running back Garrett Wolfe (back/kidney), linebacker Pisa Tinoisamoa (knee), guard Lance Louis and defensive tackles Matt Toeaina and...

Shaky safeties

Thu, 12 Nov 2009 11:38:02 -0500

CHICAGO -- Things are looking a bit shaky for the Bears at safety Thursday night -- Kevin Payne (back) is out, and Al Afalava (shoulder) is questionable to face the Niners. The Bears really need Afalava to play, but the rookie hasn't practiced the entire week. Skipping practice before a regular season game is no big deal to most veterans (in fact, they probably prefer it), but Afalava likely feels differently. Regardless, he might have to put aside those concerns and give it a try. The Be...

The Unanticipated Beastliness Of Josh Bullocks

Wed, 11 Nov 2009 00:15:43 -0500

Sure, he has what some might call a relatively unimpressive six career interceptions in 62 games played, and whilst a member of a horrible Saints secondary, he was benched in favor of some supposedly less-horrible player, but this shouldn’t deter you from thinking he can play. In fact, Peanut Tillman is so convinced Josh Bullocks [...]

Beat Writers Project the 53

Thu, 03 Sep 2009 00:12:59 -0500

Both of the local beats have projected the Bears' 53-man roster and there are a few surprises.Click here to read David Haugh in the Trib.Click here to read Brad Biggs in the Sun-Times.Both men have some similar opinions but I'll just respond to the trends I'm seeing.1. I hope the Bears do not cut Craig Steltz in favor of Josh Bullocks. Bullocks may have a lot more starts under his belt but those starts are for that horror show of a defense down in New Orleans. ...

Josh Bullocks Involved In Pyramid Scheme

Tue, 25 Aug 2009 16:10:31 -0500

NFL twins Daniel and Josh Bullocks (obviously, no longer a Saint) do everything together. And, when they add Chiefs linebacker Demorrio Williams to the fold, they own Williams & Bullocks, a successful company of some sort. It’s just a shame that their partner in the company and the one who manages it, Mary Wong, did [...]

Never Mind The (Josh) Bullocks

Wed, 11 Mar 2009 23:28:41 -0500

Josh Bullocks is the new Bears free safety. Kind of. Except he struggled so mightily in coverage last year, he was benched after six games. So, where does this put the Bears in terms of their free safety situation? Slightly better than yesterday. At the very least, they have depth; at the very most, competition for [...]
