Resiliency can carry Bears a long way
Sometimes the will is more important than the skill. Sunday was one of those times for the Bears. They didn't provide NBC's "Football Night in America" with many highlights. They failed to take advantage of what the Rams were giving their offense....

Bears can be grateful it's only exhibition season
EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. — On the only play worth remembering for the Bears in a disappointing 20-17 exhibition victory Friday night over the Giants at MetLife Stadium, wide receiver Brandon Marshall wildly celebrated his 21-yard touchdown catch from...

Defense gives fans reason to cheer
Most fans go to Bears summer training camp hoping to be entertained by spectacular offensive plays. Jay Cutler lofts a deep pass to Brandon Marshall, Devin Hester or Earl Bennett and the crowd goes wild. Matt Forte bursts through a hole and races 35...

Season has earmarks of Urlacher's swan song
Pardon me if I'm a smidge disjointed with this one. I have had no experience writing about a Bears offense with players at the skilled positions who are capable of taking a team to a Super Bowl. And I have no memory of a Bears defense that appears to...

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...

Angelo deserves some credit for Bears' success
Contrary to the convenient but lazy local narrative being retold all week, Bears 2008 first-round draft bust Chris Williams didn't get former general manager Jerry Angelo fired. Not as much as Caleb Hanie did. If Hanie had played as well replacing Jay...

Emotions ran high for Bears against Broncos
There is no feeling quite like the anticipation and then the rush of adrenaline football players experience under game conditions. Even in Thursday night's Bears-Broncos preseason game at Soldier Field, players said they felt "jitters" and "nervousness."...

Cutler in command in victory over Redskins
Jay Cutler sat out the Bears' first exhibition game but did not look the least bit rusty in his debut Saturday night at Soldier Field. The quarterback was comfortable and in command of the new offense against the Redskins, setting the tone early in a 33-...

Bears big problem isn't Urlacher's injury
Stephen Paea is injured. Of course he is. It’s what he does, occasionally finding a spasm of health and talent to rush the passer. Paea had a bad knee last season, then underwent arthroscopic surgery and looked like a player during the early...

3rd exhibition the 1 that counts — kind of
The first two NFL exhibitions are essentially an extension of practice. No game plans or film study to prep for an opponent. Dry, dull contests with base concepts and starters running to the bench early in the first half. Line up and play ball. That's...

Bears light on stars in 31-3 loss in exhibition opener
The Bears decided to keep their new offense mostly under wraps until the second week of the exhibition schedule. Quarterback Jay Cutler and running back Matt Forte were held out of Thursday's opener at Soldier Field against the Broncos, perhaps to...

Rodgers torches Bears' secondary
It didn't take Aaron Rodgers long to notice Tim Jennings wasn't playing. The Packers quarterback went at Jennings' replacement at left cornerback, Kelvin Hayden, and Hayden's replacement at nickel back, D.J. Moore, repeatedly. Neither made a play in...
