As Promised here's some pictures from the Monday Night's game that Dad and I went to. I would have posted earlier but I've been recovering from the severe cold I developed following the game. Memorable time and I can now cross bitter cold game at Soldier Field off the bucket list Dad and I at the Bean in Millennium Park Panoramic of Millennium Park Another Panoramic of Millennium Park Chicago Skyline Dad and I outside Ditka's Excellent food at Ditka's. I had the bbq baby back ribs and Dad had the Steak Burger Inside Ditka's Van outside Ditka's The Walk to Soldier Field The Colonnades South Entrance Warmup…

The guy is an offensive guru in the college ranks and has a long history of calling plays. He called them in Tennessee for a couple of years with Vince Young there and while that might not have been a great fit for the offense Chow likes, I think Cutler would be a perfect fit for him. I'd be all for Chow, in fact, I'd like him more than any other candidate. Chow was the offensive mind behind the early USC offenses with Palmer/Leinart.

There is several teams that need cap space that have bloated contracts for some players. This is a list of potential releases, do we want any of them. Oakland- Michael Crabtree had a bad year, not all his fault but is due 8.25 and cutting him will save Oak 7.7 mil Ravens- Jerry Maclin had a bad year and is due 7.5 mil, they would save 5 mil by cutting him. N.O. - Coby Fleener is due 8.1 mil for his 22 recs. and 2 TDs Miami- JuWuan James/OT is due 9.2 mil coming off an injury prone season. they are going to rescind his 5th year option. 25 years old RT Jets- Muhammad Wilkerson/DT can save 17 mil by designated him a June 1st cut. I think Ja…

Everyone has talked about how bad the team as looked with Mack hobbled by the ankle the last two games. However, we were a good defense without him last year, and Floyd was a big part of it. This year Floyd looks more like a UDFA than a first round pick. His numbers have actually gotten worse every year and he has never played more than 12 games per season. I know there is still some time, but if he continues to play like this, I don't see them picking up his 5th year option.

I don’t know how reliable Over The Cap is but it looks like we are in a right mess. Pace just throws money without caring about the consequences. The amount of money tied up with Mack and Quinn is ridiculous especially when they have been poor. If we move on from Leno and Massie next year there is still a lot of dead money owed. 2 years ago things looked good and now it’s worse than the Trestmen and Emery era.

I'm not sure we've ever seen every player attend all OTAs and minicamp. http://www.chicagobears.com/news/article-1...9c-0dcf6884176b

Here is the first depth chart for the Broncos game. Notice that Webb is the starter at LT. , and D.J. Moore is listed as a 4th string CB OFFENSE WR: Brandon Marshall/Earl Bennett/Dane Sanzenbacher/Terriun Crump-Chris Summers LT: J’Marcus Webb/Chris Williams/*James Brown LG: Chris Spencer/Chilo Rachal/*A.J. Greene C: Roberto Garza/Edwin Williams/Chris Spencer/*Nick Pieschel RG: Lance Louis/Ricky Henry/*Nick Pieschel RT: Gabe Carimi/Chris Williams/Cory Brandon/*Tyler Hendrickson TE: Kellen Davis/Matt Spaeth/Kyle Adams/*Evan Rodriguez/*Brandon Venson WR: Devin Hester/*Alshon Jeffery/Eric Weems/*Joe Anderson-*Brittan Golden/Rashied Davis QB…

Here is a quick look at how are rookies are doing so far: Smith - 15 solo tackles (2nd on team), 1 sack, 1 PD, played in a team-high 81% of defensive team snaps vs TB. He is clearly getting more and more playing time, and he is nowhere near his peak yet. Just think about it, no one is even talking about him because guys like Jackson, Hicks, Trevathan, Callahan, and of course Mack are playing great. Daniels - rotated with Kush in TB game, looks like he is ready for prime time. He seeks contact like a vulture. He wants to hit people and is very athletic and strong. A great combination for our OLine. He has to be starting coming out of the bye. Miller - 8 rec, 60 y…

Bears sign Attaochu, I'm assuming he replaces Mingo as Edge3.

Here's the link: http://www.bangcartoon.com/2008/tvguide.htm I've been looking at this site for a while and they always make something that makes me laugh.

Per Twitter: Mike Garafolo ‏@MikeGarafolo 50 mins It's been relatively quiet on the Long front. Bears and Rams believed to be among the most interested. We'll see. The Trib says the Bears are also looking at Bushrod and Cook and might have to choose between the two. I say if the Bears can get out of FA with either Long or Bushrod, I'd consider it a success. I'd even pay a little more for Long, all things being equal. I don't love Cook, and think it might be more prudent to sign a second-tier potential starter at TE (I've always liked Delanie Walker) and spend the extra $ at LT and look at TE and OG in the first round of the draft.

There are some good things that showed up: Peppers is playing better Jefferys is capable of being our #2 WR We showed we still have an offense that can make plays. We kept the best WR in football in check Gould is gold The bad: Interior defense is weak Red zone offense not scoring TDs Paea to 3T and Collins at NT Tillman still hurting the ugly: Cutler being bad Cutler 3rd down efficiency poor tackling ST breakdowns Conclusion: We are a work in progress. I dont think the defense is capable of being great but can still make plays. I think the offense will win some games for us and lose some, we are a flawed team, as…

Kelvin Hayden has been resigned per the score

Per Zach Zeidman - Bears agreed to terms

-Said he would do some things differently in Denver, like talking to Bowlen more in depth. Said he thinks Denver would also do a lot differently. -Said he knows there's going to be pressure. -Said he's happy for Eli on his new payday and gave a "I'm going to get mine too" laugh. There might be a longer version on the night edition of SC but I'm not sure.
