McMahon, the Bears’ quarterback in their Super Bowl-winning 1985 season, joins a group of players saying that the NFL was negligent and that players have suffered from headaches, dizziness and dementia because of injuries suffered on the field. “The purpose of this lawsuit is to obtain proper funding to a…

--well the line looks a little better, but that aint saying much --I get that its a practice game so I wont jump all over martz' ass cause he might want to get a look at things on film, but if he is still calling a 2 to 1 pass to run ratio when the season starts, he needs to be held accountable. --The defense looks like they have no energy. The outside linebackers have not held leverage all night and look like crap. --They should just shoot chester taylor now. -- Roy Williams is a joke. I hate that guy already. What an insult to the rest of the team, come in out of shape and drops the damn ball. --WTF is up with the special teams. The c…

I saw that he was released and not sure if he signed with anyone -- he has some talent but injury problems. Do you take a look?

Tavaris Jackson is absolutely terrible. Based on how great Minnys run game looks, he is gonna cost them big this year.

That was one of the dumbest friggin calls in the history of the Bears. 1) Forte was effective 2) McKie is not a good runner 3) The passing game was not effective 4) Everyone in the stadium knew the Bears were going to run What the hell? This game is all on the offense, specifically Ron Turner and Kyle Orton.

ZZ reported he had season ending ankle surgery. I would think he is most likely done with the Bears. Peace

Ya think the D will be ready to play then?! Lol I bet they can't wait, they all hated him. http://freep.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID...1/80917021/1048

IMHO to beat the Buc we must run the ball at least 30 times and use our height at TE in the red zone, because we are going to get there against this team. DO NOT GIVE MCKIE THE BALL ON 3RD OR 4TH AND 1 OR TWO! We need to use the famous play action bootleg pass to the TE that always works. If we did last week we would have won that game. 4th and one and the team is stacked for the run and a hand off to the slow a$$ fullback. Who did Turner think McKie was Jim Brown, Franco Harris,Walter, Barry.....who!!!!! LOL

1. Angelo's inability to do anything for this offense. 2. No franchise QB. 3. No play makers at WR. (Lloyd looks good as of right now) 4. Our TE's can't catch or hold onto balls. 5. Offensive coordinator who sucks. 6. Defense coordinator who sucks. 7. O-Line is put together like legos. 8. Drafted an injury prone tackle. 9. Not using Kevin Jones. 10. This front office sucks as a whole. They're trotting out the same shit year after year on offense. I'm sick of it.

Here's some of mine.. " >Insert random players name no matter there skill level "We'll go from there" (In response to somebody asking why they didn't run the ball in the game, this is my all time favorite) "We knew they would eventually stop us, so we tried to pass."

From the Trib, http://blogs.chicagosports.chicagotribune....s-could-mi.html Harris says he will play, but Lovie doesn't sound as sure. The way harris has played, does it matter. I honestly wonder if Dusty and Harrison would not be a better starting duo of Harris is in fact hurting.

Finished one out! nice job BEARS!

Anyone else agree that this guy hasn't been the same since he is considered an "All-Star". Don't get me wrong, he could return like a beast, but since he got the contract extension, he hasn't done anything for the team. Call his TD yesterday a good play, but I could have sworn he stepped out, but luckily he didn't. Overall, we're paying him way too much to get -6 yards on returns. He seems to stop running, then run backwards or straight sideways and try to make a big return. Before, he would just run for his life and get great blocks and moves. I guess I'm just sick of Hester trying to be #1 in the media by his returns. Right now, he's looking nothing like he us…

I for one am glad that Briggs stayed here. He's been absolutely awesome so far this season. Keep it up Lance!

Health beat: Starting cornerbacks Charles Tillman (shoulder) and Nate Vasher (wrist) were limited in practice Friday and listed as questionable on the injury report, but both said they expected to play against the Lions. Booker (knee) was also limited and listed as questionable, while rookie left tackle Chris Williams practiced without restrictions and was listed as questionable. The first-round draft pick has been making steady progress in his rehabilitation from back surgery. “Chris Williams had another good day and he’s had a good week of practice,” said coach Lovie Smith. “That’s always good to get a player like that back into the mix.” http://www.ch…

Noots’ Notes-Game 7: 48-41 Win over Minnesota By Michael Nudo The Bears (4-3) treated their home crowd to an exciting 48-41 shootout with the Vikings on Sunday. Yet again, the offense put up big numbers while the defense held on as much as they could. This time, the defense was able to force a few turnovers. A few fortuitous bounces the special teams capitalized upon helped the cause as well. The Bears go into the bye week with a share of first place in the NFC North, and have an opportunity to get some of their injured players back on the field. Zack Bowman puts the game on ice (AP Photo/M. Spencer Green). OFFENSE QuarterbackKyle Orton (21-32-283,…

The Bears are the highest scoring team in the league with 196 ahead of the Puckers on 194

Without our passing game, and against a stout running defense, do we have a shot and ending the 8-0 streak. This is gonna be a grind it out running game. Which really sucks now that Orton is out. We pass all over the Titans and force them to have the great Kerry Collins beat us, really sucks Anyway, did anyone else's stomach turn when you saw grossman with a helmet on....
