The following is a piece from ProFootballTalk in its entirety. I don't have a ton to add Michael David Smith's commentary so I figured I'd just throw it out here for discussion. Bears defensive tackle Tommie Harris says he and his teammates need to

The Bears are bad. They're awful. They've lost five games this season and in three of them they outplayed their opponent significantly. The other two are the poorest defensive efforts of the last twenty-five years. The Bears make more mistakes...

You can't play quarterback like Jay Cutler played quarterback last night. It's simply not allowed at the professional level. He was erratic, mindless and disastrously inaccurate. He was everything we've seen at quarterback for the better part of...

I have to admit it. I'm fascinated by Thursday night's game in San Francisco. The Chicago Bears are only a few inches from plummeting off the cliff of the 2009 season and now, on only a three-day turnaround, must ignore the media's call for accountability...

The Bears defense is a wretched, flaming mess. They've got a defensive tackle with a host of seemingly incurable mental disorders. They've got Alex Brown trying to generate a pass rush on his own, excepting Adewale Ogunelye's twice-yearly dominance against...

The Chicago Bears can no longer employ Tommie Harris. Today
