Bears Clearly Regressing

I don’t know what to say anymore. Really, is there a point to writing about another disappointing Bears loss under Lovie Smith, Ron Turner and Jerry Angelo?
I actually thought the Bears had a good chance of beating the Eagles prior to the 24-20 loss Sunday night. Philadelphia...
NFL Tailgating Crackdown

For me, this decade has been the decade of tailgating before Bears games. And as we all know, this decade is quickly coming to a close. I’ll never figure out how fast the last 10 years have gone by.
The older I get, honestly the less tailgating I can handle. It was a ghastly...
Bears Silent?

Brad Biggs writes today that in a rare move for NFL teams, the Bears have blocked NBC from conducting interviews with players and staff to use in Sunday Night’s telecast? The article states such a move has also been pulled by Bill Belichick and the Patriots in the past, but...
Bills Fire Jauron

There are actually a few organizations across the NFL that are worse off now than our Bears, and it’s nice to shift focus every now and then away from our problems. Yesterday the Bills fired “Uncle” Dick Jauron after not quite four lackluster years. Jauron will...
Grossman’s Dad: Bears not Rex

Fred Mitchell of the Tribune talked to Dan Grossman, Rex’s father, who basically states the Bears are “where quarterbacks go to die” if we can borrow a phrase from Muhsin Muhammad. Grossman says that his son was “tainted” coming out of Chicago as a free...
Bears Home Stretch, or Home Limp

Today in the Chicago Tribune, Vaughn McClure dissects, but does not predict, the Bears’ final seven games. To me there isn’t much dissection needed. From what we’ve seen in the first nine games, no way do the Bears win more than two (Rams and Lions). And at...
Chicago Bears: Free Fallin’

“The Chicago Bears tonight…they’re just horrible.” That’s not my quote, that’s Matt Millen’s. When the architect of one of the worst teams of any decade calls you horrible, you’re horrible.
So we’re now in free-fall mode asÂ...
Bears at 49ers 2009

Chicago Bears Weblog

I’m biting my tongue bigtime. There is so much I could say about what’s wrong with the 2009 Bears. And unfortunately I’m afraid I will have to say it all when the time is right.
But for today I have decided that this is a 4-4 team and as disgusted as I am about 2 of [...]
Davis: We’ll Destroy the Bears

Not sure Mike Singletary likes his players mouthing off. But they are. Vernon Davis says the 49ers will “destroy their [the Bears] guys up front.” Can you blame him? I really can’t. What opponent wouldn’t think this?
Is This a 6-10 Season?

Chicago Bears Weblog

As I was waking up this morning, figuring out what to write about when everything I can think to write about disgusts me, I thought I would predict the rest of the season. Then I saw the Tribune writers doing the same thing. I’m writing this before I look at the article....
Cardinals 41, Bears 21
14 days ago by
Chicago Bears Weblog

Pains me to write that. Not just another loss, but another lopsided loss to an average team. Two in three weeks. Over 40 points allowed twice in three weeks. 31 points allowed in a half for the second time this season.
Don’t know what else to say, other than we know if...
Cardinals at Bears 2009

Chicago Bears Weblog

Is it me, or does it seem that Tribune writer Dan Pompei works for the Bears’ PR staff? Recently Pompei wrote an article defending Ron Turner. And today he writes that cornerback Nathan Vasher is “born again at safety”, even though the player has been at the new...

Wow. I miss a morning posting due to leaving for work at 4 a.m. or whatever, and the great comments keep coming. Thanks everyone.
Tuesday night I heard a couple of things on the Score I felt like commenting on but didn’t have the chance until now. First, it seems to be...
Turner: Simplification the Answer?
20 days ago by
Chicago Bears Weblog
| Comments
I realize NFL expert Dan Pompei wrote a couple weeks back that it’s unfair to criticize Ron Turner, that he’s not the problem when the Bears can’t protect, run the ball or score inside the red zone. And when a real media expert talks, we listen, right?
After Sunday...
Bears 30, Browns 6
21 days ago by
Chicago Bears Weblog

I guess this one’s going to be short. I was hoping the Bears would beat the Browns in dominating fashion, being that the Browns are among the dumpster of the NFL. And the Bears did wallop Cleveland. But as I said to a few today, I’ve never been less impressed by a...
Browns at Bears 2009

I’m not one to wish time away-but have to say I’m glad it’s Friday and we can finally look forward to Sunday’s home game against the putrid Browns.
The Bears need to win this game handily. If they beat Cleveland by two touchdowns, the defense returns to form...
Changes Afoot-But DON’T Ask Lovie
25 days ago by
Chicago Bears Weblog

Thanks to everyone for the great comments, proving that win or lose we’re the best fans in the business.
I have a lot of thoughts right now about the future, particularly about the defensive backfield (which poster Rob just mentioned) and the offensive line. How Jerry Angelo...
Lovie Not Going Anywhere
26 days ago by
Chicago Bears Weblog
| Comments
I know most everyone understands this, but let’s remember that Lovie Smith isn’t going anywhere this year or next year. Like him, love him or starting to despise him, he’s the Bears coach most likely through the final year of his contract in 2011. Maybe-just maybe...
Bears Hopes Tied to Lovie 2

Simple as this. We can talk about those that want Kyle Orton back instead of Jay Cutler. We can talk about the poor play of the offensive line and the bad personnel decisions made there. Matt Forte’s demise, talentless wide receivers. But simple as this-as long as Lovie...
Chicago Bears Loss: Dios Mio, Man

Thanks to my friend Febster for inspiring that headline. The headline could have read a lot worse than saying MY GOD MAN! As I told him, I think the Bears played like a bunch of pendejos today. What more can I say.
Mild-mannered coach whose team has regressed exponentially the...
Bears at Bengals 2009
October 23, 2009 by
Chicago Bears Weblog
| Comments
It’s so easy to get tickets in Cincinnati it’s ludicrous. So a local friend of mine-a Bengals fan no less-almost bought a pair and made an 18-hour road trip for the game. But we decided not to, and now that it seems the flu is spreading rapidly around families it’...
Buddy Benson Continues to Jaw
October 22, 2009 by
Chicago Bears Weblog
| Comments
Of course now that Cedric Benson is the league’s third-leading rusher, he finds the time appropriate to continue to spout off on his unfair treatment, how his problems in Chicago weren’t his fault, and that he blythely has “no idea” what went wrong.
Indeed the...
Jay Cutler Gets an Extension
October 20, 2009 by
Chicago Bears Weblog
| Comments
According to Profootballtalk, the Bears have extended quarterback Jay Cutler’s contract through 2013, giving their first franchise quarterback in oh, 60 years $30 million in new money with $20 million guaranteed.
Kind of interesting in that they only extended the deal rather...
Falcon Frustration

Chicago Bears Weblog

The Bears needed to score 30 points. That’s what I thought going into this game. Now that the defense bends a hell of a lot more than they used to, and now that we have the quarterback that can direct long scoring drives, this offense has to put points on the board.
And they...

See what happens when you become an adult with a career, wife and family? You get off work on a Friday and start attending to family business and miss any news that comes in during the day/evening.
It was Saturday morning before I learned that the Bears traded their second-round...
