at least. Fractured shoulder blade. 2-6 weeks. This 'could' help the playoff cause. "Sean Jensen, of the St. Paul Pioneer Press, reports Minnesota Vikings DT Pat Williams (shoulder) will miss two to six weeks with a fractured scapula, according to head coach Brad Childress. "

I'm watching Chicago Tribune Live right now and there talking about Chad Johnson and how he's going to be available this offseason. It's been talked about before, but seeing how pathetic our WR corps is right now, do you feel like going after a guy like Ocho Cinco who could potentially raise our team to the next level but also destroy the locker room? I say, go for it.

So I'm sitting here watching CTL (which is a stupid show as David Kaplan is an a**hole) and of course Kaplan wants the Bears to go out and get a huge named WR, just like he wanted Favre. Well, they brought up Chad Johnson. Originally, Cincy turned down two 1st rounders from the Redskins, and I bet they would do that now in a heartbeat. However, now he might be only worth a 2nd and a 4th. Would you make a trade for Chad Johnson? What would you give up for him, if you previously answered yes?

Pennington @ KC or Roethlisberger @ TEN Gates @ TB or Scheffler vs BUF Dallas D vs BAL or Washington D vs PHI need 2 of 3: Avery vs SF Colston @ DET Calvin Johnson vs NO

Link So, because we let Berrian go, he'll be the reason if we miss the playoffs? I guess those blown games don't mean anything?

http://www.chicagotribune.com/sports/footb...0,7034381.story Bout time our top pick of the 06 draft starting being worth something...

Orton 13-25 179 2 TD Forte 22 rushes 122 yards 1 TD, 3 catches 39 yards Bears 27-19

Trade our 17th overall for a 2nd, 3rd, and 6th. 2. Tyson Jackson, DE, LSU ---take best defensive player here, a machine who never stops 2. Kraig Urbik, OG, Wisconsin ---arguably the 2nd best OG in the nation this year- 6'6 310 3. Derek Pegues, FS, Mississippi State ---very fast and a ball hawker- can also lay the big hit 3. Troy Kropog, OT, Tulane ---going to the Senior Bowl- last time we took a Tulane guy it worked out- 6'6 320 3 (COMP). Mohamed Massaquoi, WR, Georgia ---long and lanky (6'2, 200), very reliable for Stafford at Georgia- his last game: 11 catches for 140 yards

David Hagh has a good article (at least IMdO) ovr at the Trib: http://www.chicagotribune.com/sports/footb...,4206126.column I particularly liked what he said about Lovie: a good pre-game coach, but not a good in-game coach. And that Lovie has surrounded himself with "yes" men. Ten wins, though, will make him look alot better, given all the prognosticators at the start of the season that had us below the Lions!

INJURY REPORT AND IMPLICATIONS Green Bay Packers (5-9) at Chicago Bears (8-6) By Michael Nudo An injury at safety has forced Tramon Williams in at cornerback (AP Photo/Morry Gash). BEARS OFFENSE vs. PACKERS DEFENSE The Bears have been without fullback Jason McKie (quadriceps) for close to a month. Jason Davis held down the spot while McKie has been out. Wide receiver Marty Booker (rib) sat out last week’s game and may be ready for action Monday. Running back Matt Forte injured his toe on the opening series against New Orleans but was able to return. Forte hadn’t practiced through Thursday. The Bears may be giving him some extra time off to he…

I personally feel we need a subforum in here to separate college football and the draft from the Bears. I don't know about others, but when I click on this forum, I look for Bears and NFL news, and I think separating the two would be beneficial. Thoughts?

One question for you..who and what postions in the upcoming FA market should we target? IMHO It should be QB,FS/SS, OG,OT,WR I just looked at some of the names at QB and found it had names like Cassel from the Patriots, Garcia from the Bucs, Collins from the Titians, Garrard from the Jaguars, and of course Qrton & Grossman. At WR Colston/Moore from the Saints, TO from Dallas, TJ H from the Bengals And Oline Dahl from the Falcons and Thomas from the Eagles,at DB Jones at SS from the Browns. With some of these playes we could make a real good push next year. Has anyone heard the status about Bently from the Browns at C/OG?

Note to Turner...if anyone goes to the MNF game against the Packers could you please yell at Turner for me about using our TE Davis and Olsen in the Red Zone. It seams that he can't hear me when I yell at him through the computer screen.

http://www.suntimes.com/sports/football/be...-bsep19.article As for the TD escalator, I can think of at least 3 dropped TD passes (Hester against Philly, Booker against Minny, and Clark against NO). Further Clark fumbled on the 1 yd line against Minny and it was recovered in the endzone by Davis. Peace

http://www.suntimes.com/sports/football/be...-bear19.article I think he will be a head coach in the next 5 yrs. Peace

Anyone else checked out this kid. Another Illinois product that seems to me is much better then Mckie. I personaly feel that if they dont keep this kid they will regret it. I was watching the replay the other night and he slams the line like freight train on blocks and pass recieving seems to be superior to Mckies. I was disappointed when they let Pope go, now its Davis turn, But somehow I think Mckie has naked pics of lovie. He keeps turning up like a bad penny.

@ Lets hope the real Tarvaris Jackson shows up.

We've had mixed feelings about this ball club now sense our Superbowl run 2 years ago. We are still grasping at a shot of redemption with our fingernails this year and if it weren't for a couple plays, the "NFL" world would be mentioning the Bears with the Giants and Panthers as favorites to go to the big show. With this in mind, I don't see JA looking to tear down and rebuild, but to keep reloading. He will stick to his formula in building the team through the draft and to only add big name FA's only if it won't hurt the team in the long run. FA starts Feb 27 - Mike Brown - signed 4 yr deal Julius Peppers/Terrell Suggs …

Does it go by divisional conference record, or overall NFC Conference record, because if that is the case dallas now has 3 divisional conference losses and so does tampa and philly, so if we win monday night we would only have 2 losses. Just wondering since dallas's loss keeps us alive for a wildcard as well! HERE'S TO WINNING OUT!!! Now we have to hope that washington whipps up on philly and philly takes their fustrations out on dallas in week 16! Then all we'd need is for tampa to lose against san diego and oakland. That is if minny doesn't choke LOL!
