Read the excerpt(s) from the article.... "If Chris Williams makes that transition to guard beginning Sunday against the Seahawks, he will follow in the footsteps of players such as Robert Gallery, Leonard Davis, Mike Williams and Chester Pitts. Others, such as Daryn Colledge of the Packers, were moved immediately from tackle to guard when they became pros. The Packers have experimented with Bryan Bulaga, their first round pick this year, playing guard as well as tackle." If Williams is incapable of playing left tackle in the NFL, nobody knows it yet as he has had only seven starts. If you want to give up on Williams now, you probably also would have given u…

Barring a setback, Cutler will start against the Seattle Seahawks at Soldiers Field on Sunday. ________________________________ Thank God... and Ditka on a side note... Bears QB Collins passed his concussion test. According to team physician Joe Schmoe 'Physically he is fine, but unfortunately he just plain sucks"

Chris Williams. Just breaking. LT is Omiyale LG is Williams Webb stays at RT. Suddenly we are alot younger overall on the line. Now if Williams can handle being a decent G...we may not be as bad off as things felt a couple weeks back.

Just heard that that Omiyale stays at LT, Webb at RT, and Chris Williams will take over for Garza at LG. I'm intrigued. I've reada few things that Williams may end up being a better guard than tackle. I guess the experiment continues...

Have been reading around and hearing about some folks that "could" fit into the Bears plans. Nothing solid mind you just rumors. Names on the list: Berrian ( ), Carolina's Steve Smith ( ), NE's Logan Mankins ( ) , Alphonso Boone (this one actually is more true than not) and I even heard someone mention Jeff Garcia ( Any others out there? And I have a new candidate for Head Coach for those that are not fans of Lovie's. At the very least watch the video when you start second guess how the season is going.

I had a scary thought today... Green Bay GB is decimated with injuries, currently 3-2, and has the following left: MIA, MIN, NYJ, DAL, MIN, ATL, SF, DET, NE, NYG, CHI That's 8 tough games left, without even counting a dangerous Dallas team, an improving Detroit team, and an underperforming SF team. GB could feasibly finish with 4 or 5 more losses, easily, and finish just on the outside of a wild card birth. Minnesota Sitting at 1-3 with the following left: DAL, GB, NE, ARI, CHI, GB, WAS, NYG, CHI, PHI, DET That's 8 tough games for them as well. And since Fartve isn't having a miracle year like last year, they will probably do worse than GB. …

For those who were able to see the game, how did the O Line look? Forte had a big day, does that mean the O Line were an improved unit?

I am saying this tonight as I was predicting with friends in the offseason. Brett Favre will quit during the season. They will pull some injury BS or whatever, but he's done and goes out tarnishing a stellar career. ____________________Where it all started _______________________

So this question's been raised in the sports media, and I thought it'd be interesting to hash it out here. Chris Williams is (hopefully) going to come back from his hamstring in the next week or two. He struggled a bit before his injury, but that's a pretty small sample size, and he was solid at LT last year. I have to assume that he'll get his job back on the left side once he's healthy. That raises the question, though - what do we do with Omiyale? Here are my thoughts. Big Frank hasn't played badly on the left side, but he certainly hasn't been outstanding. However, he really played pretty poorly on the right side before the switch. He wasn't great in pass …

I know we are 4-1. But lets be honest and objective, it hasn't been pretty. So far this year: Jay Cutler- 68/102 912 yds 6TD 3Int Kyle Orton- 118/175 1419 yds 6 TD 3Int Johnny Knox- 12 Rec 258 yds 0 TD Brandon Lloyd- 29 Rec 589 yds 3 TD Given, I would rather have a weaker quarterback and be 4-1. Both chicago and denver are equally abismal rushing. We are 31st and they are 32nd. This is just math.

Never have to see Todd Collins again, my god what a loser

Just a few things I noticed today being at the game: - Forte was obviously great. Nice cut-backs. - Peppers is amazing. Manning made a few TD saving tackles + his good returns. Great job by Idonije as well. - Is Hester back? He's been great lately. - Why the hell did Martz start getting pass-happy in the 3rd? My God is Collins bad. If Lovie keeps him at the #2 QB, Hanie should punch Lovie in the sack. - OL (plus Manumaleuna) is still pretty terrible. - Connor: your boy proved me wrong with that 53 yarder today. - MadLith: told you- I'm 3-0 when I see them play somewhere other than Chicago. No worries. - Panthers fans are a joke. Didn't even get loud for…

I'm not a huge Hanie backer or anything either but DAMN!!! At least Hanie has a little life in him. Collins was DONE years ago.

That Collins INT on the 1 yard line was miserable!!!!!!!! Martz is good but that was crap!!!!!!!

I'm making this so early because week 4 was so f***ing disgusting. Cutler: 12-23, 123 yards Forte: 19 rushes, 60 yards, 1 TD Taylor: 11 rushes, 40 yards Defense gets a TD and with a Steve Smithless Carolina team, the Bears elite D will eat Clausen alive. I'll be at the game for my annual Bears road trip. Bear down! Bears 23-6

The Bears are tied for best record in the NFC and a half a game back over all. Yet, it feels like they are the 0-16 detriot lions from a couple years back, exceot feeling like next year will be the same coaches and front office. It just don't feel like leading the league and makes me sick looking forward to next year.
