Bears' O-line holds up against blitz
On Monday, what stood out about the Bears' performance on Sunday is the pass protection held up both in terms of recognition and execution against an aggressive, accomplished blitzing team. Arizona defensive coordinator Ray Horton sent more than four...

Bears' Webb grows up in opener
The wide receivers took the bows and the cornerbacks got the high-fives, but the Bears won their opener Sunday because they beat the Colts in the trenches. The play of the Bears offensive line was particularly eye-opening. And no one played better on...

Bears reach high point, but questions remain
NASHVILLE, Tenn. — As one, the Bears and their thousands of fans merrily marched out of town late Sunday after invading Nashvegas and making it their own. They come home wearing cowboy hats and pointy boots, carrying pieces of what once were the...

Ugly loss an all-around failure
Go ahead and pinpoint the Hail Mary touchdown pass as the difference in the Bears' 10-3 loss Sunday to the Chiefs at Soldier Field, and mathematically, nobody can argue.
But the Bears weren't beaten by an answered Chiefs prayer. They were beaten by their...Tags: Mike Martz, Sports, Matt Forte, Soldier Field, Robbie Gould

Packers will test Urlacher in red zone
The Bears will show some Cover-2 "deep" inside the red zone Thursday night, rushing four, dropping seven into coverage and trying to force the ball underneath to the flat. To counter that, Aaron Rodgers and the Packers will align players out of position...

Fading Bears need change -- the sooner the better
Of all the noise surrounding the Bears' 21-13 loss to the Packers on Sunday, general manager Phil Emery easily could ignore the pregame chatter that revealed his team as one unable to back up big talk. Emery could tune out telling boos from a fed-up fan...

Bears offense as advertised, defense opening eyes

Turnovers setting table for Bears success
You could make the argument that every one of us is in a race against time, but it might be a little more difficult to sustain that view of the Bears defense these days. From aging and slowing to experienced and eminent, the revival of the franchise's...

Bears' pass rush making all the difference
The popular joke when the Bears traded for Jay Cutler in 2009 was that they fleeced the Broncos by including two first-round draft picks because such selections were worthless in Chicago. The trade simply spared the Bears the indignity of making even more...

Special teams key to Bears' blowout
The Bears were facing one of the best special teams units in the NFL on Sunday, but special teams played a significant role in the Bears' victory. On the blocked punt that Corey Wootton returned for a touchdown, the Bears surprised the Titans by sending...Tags: Kamerion Wimbley, Alterraun Verner, Matt Hasselbeck, Sports, Henry Melton

Cutler off the mark against Rams
The Bears didn't need Jay Cutler to be on his game to win Sunday, and it's a good thing. Cutler usually is a pretty accurate passer, but his throws frequently were not where they should have been against the Rams. He completed 54.8 percent of his...
