Smith's tenure at crossroads
Suspense surrounded Halas Hall last year over who would take the fall for the Bears squandering a 7-3 start and missing the playoffs. Who besides Mike Martz, that is, because in retrospect we practically blamed Martz for everything from causing too many...

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...

Forte gets up to speed
BOURBONNAIS — Matt Forte missed the Bears' entire offseason program, but a week into training camp, running backs coach Tim Spencer declared him "good to go." The ground game has not changed, and protection schemes have remained pretty much the...

Cutler stays up, but Bears' offense a downer
On his first chance in the exhibition season, Roy Williams dropped a third-and-10 pass that would’ve picked up 16. While he gets into football shape, can he also get into catching shape?
No, wait, I think one of the guys with a reputation for drops...Tags: Caleb Hanie, Chris Harris, Kellen Davis, NFC Championship Game, ESPN (tv network)
