Given history, Smith might be best fit for Bears
The Bears may appear to be going nowhere, but that doesn't mean Lovie Smith is headed anywhere. Smith effectively can seal another contract with a victory over the Packers on Sunday. Beating the Packers is important to Bears ownership, and Smith could...

The Urlacher plan (my plan, anyway)
Listen up, it only matters if Brian Urlacher misses a real game. What’s more, it doesn’t really matter if he misses the first real game. In fact, I’d suggest he do exactly that and I’ll explain later on. But first, the Bears...

What the Bears should've learned from Sunday (but probably didn't)
What I learned about the Bearsfrom the Giants-Niners NFC Championship Game: The Niners reminded me of the Bears who went to Super Bowl 41 and lost to Indianapolis.
