New math: Better Bears offense + worse Packers defense = revenge
Maybe it’s just me, but I was totally unimpressed with the Packers defense. Completely and absolutely unimpressed. It was bad last season. It looked bad to start this season. The 49ers gashed the Packers for 186 yards rushing and 377 yards total,...

Mike Tice probably is more popular than any offensive coordinator in Bears history. Of course that could change Sunday on the Bears' first possession against the Colts, which also will be Tice's first chance in the job. Though the Bears don't have a...

Cutler still somewhat in Elway's shadow
It somehow is appropriate Andrew Luck begins his career on a field opposite Jay Cutler. The Bears quarterback can offer his Colts counterpart a bit of advice about following a legend when the teams hook up Sunday at Soldier Field. Hopefully, it will be...

Assembling offensive line interesting task for Bears
Sixth in a 14-part series leading up to the start of Bears training camp. The further the Bears get away from their appearance in Super Bowl XLI, the better the offensive line for that team, built almost exclusively through pro free agency, looks. It...

Tice reintroducing tight ends into passing game
BOURBONNAIS — Just like his successor Mike Tice, former Bears offensive coordinator Mike Martz was a tight end in his playing days. But the men have much different visions for the position in today's NFL. Tight ends were forgotten when it came to...

Who fills the Urlacher void? Cutler, that's who
If Brian Urlacher can’t play this season, then Jay Cutler ends up with even more pressure, and I’m not talking about another missed block by J’Marcus Webb. This Bears offseason was all about the offense. I mean, just look: Cutler was...
