We all remember the last time the Bears and Cardinals played one another, it was October 16, 2006 on Monday Night Football.
The famous Dennis Green tirade came out of this game as the Bears overcame a 23-3 third quarter deficit without scoring a single point on offense.
Tomorrow will be a match up of two 4-3 teams. The Bears are fresh off a win over the Browns and the Cardinals lost to the Panthers. Arizona is 3-0 on the road this season and their only 1-3 at home this season, a complete flip... Read Full Story

Jay Cutler spoke about his young group of receivers yesterday and this is what he had to say:
“You look across the league and sometimes you’ve got one of those guys or you don’t have one of those guys, we don’t have Larry Fitzgerald on this team. We’ve got Devin [Hester] and Earl [Bennett] and some other guys. We’re going to make it work with them.”
“I think we’re fine in that area, we’ve got three or four very reliable if not above average guys that can go out there and play and make things ... Read Full Story

The most important thing happened on Sunday, the Bears got the victory. Now their over .500.
I know it was against a one win Cleveland Browns team, but a win is a win in the NFL.
A lot of positives to take from this game.
Matt Forte scored two rushing touchdowns and had 90 yards on 26 carries. He looked like the Forte that we saw all last season. Devin Hester quietly had seven receptions for 81 yards, and almost broke one for a touchdown on a punt return. Jay Cutler was sacked four times, but... Read Full Story

I went to a sports bar and was very excited to eat wings and watch my Bears play some competitive football for the first time all season. I soon realized that competitive was not in the Bears vocabulary.
I watched as the Bears quickly got demolished by the arm of Carson Palmer, the hands of Chad Ochocinco and the legs of Cedric Benson.
The Bears offense was unable to score a single point, until they got a field goal late in the second quarter to go into the half trailing 31-3.
The Bears pass ... Read Full Story

(Lance Briggs, Brian Urlacher, Pisa Tinoisamoa), (Lance Briggs, Hunter Hillenmeyer, Nick Roach), (Lance Briggs, Nick Roach, Jamar Williams), those are just some of the combinations the Bears have used at linebacker this season.
The Bears came into this season with probably the best depth at linebacker, with Briggs, Urlacher and Tinoisamoa as the starters. Now they probably have the worst depth in the league.
Behind this Sunday’s starters Lance Briggs, Nick Roach, and Hunter Hillenmeyer ... Read Full Story

“I’ve been studying film on ‘Peanut’ since training camp, he’s really, really good, man.
“I know I’ve been playing around on Twitter and going back and forth with the nonsense, it’s the way I play the game, but he looks really good. He’s shut down some top receivers, so it’s going to be a fun, interesting matc... Read Full Story

According to Brad Biggs of Nationalfootballpost.com, QB Jay Cutler will receive $30 million for the two additional seasons with $20 million of it guaranteed in the form of bonus money.
He is now signed through 2013 instead of 2011, where he was at the beginning of the year. He was still on his rookie deal and now both sides win because Cutler gets $20 million guaranteed and the Bears don’t have to pay him Eli Manning money.
This move made sense because Cutler is obviously the future of... Read Full Story
