Are the Chicago Bears really this bad or are the Detroit Lions really this good? Or is it both? Whatever the case, the Bears lost to the Lions for the second time this season, this time on their own home field, 16-7.
Maybe the orange jerseys are not so lucky after after all. […]

Chicago Bears: 19
Philadelphia Eagles: 16
The last one minute and 53 seconds of the game was as exciting as the rest of the game was boring. The first three and a half quarters amounted to a dull field kicking duel, but that the last offensive drive by the Bears to take the win was nothing […]

Chicago Bears at Philadelphia Eagles
Sunday, October 21st
3:15 p.m. central time
TV: Fox
The Chicago Bears (2-4) and Philadelphia Eagles (2-3) are in the basement of their respective divisions, so it could be a pretty sloppy game.
I expect that Brian Griese is going to get sacked a lot. I expect that the defense will come out […]

I had not heard the rumors, which apparently were spread on local sports radio on […]

Posted by Brandon Mendelson

October 16, 2007 | Leave a Comment

The Chicago Bears defense likened watching film of Sunday’s loss to the Minnesota Vikings to watching a horror flick. The normally strong defense gave up 311 yards on the ground, including 224 to rookie Adrian Peterson.
Coach Lovie Smith watched the film with the entire Bears defense, saying “Sometimes it’s good to watch all of […]
