http://www.theredzone.org/BlogDescription/...il/Default.aspx Panthers may have trouble keeping Kalil Apr 29 4/29/2010 5:06:56 AM | More Panthers general manager Marty Hurney acknowledged the team's inability to sign a pair of young Pro Bowlers, running back DeAngelo Williams and center Ryan Kalil, to contract extensions this year because of new NFL rules, which could lead to their potential departure as unrestricted free agents next year according to Charles Chandler of the Charlotte Observer. While the Panthers could opt to use their franchise tag to keep Williams if no new deal is reached after next season, they probably couldn't franchise…

The players were granted a court hearing at 2 p.m. They will ask Larson to keep in place a restraining order that allows the Williamses to play pending their appeals.

With the Draft at end and Virtually all the FA signings done, This time of year is the worst for news and Bears info. It begins the long days of summer till Training camp. I hope it goes quick.

Mike Ditka, Dan Hampton pile on Brian Urlacher Posted by Michael David Smith on May 21, 2010 12:52 PM ET Pretty soon, every living Chicago Bears Hall of Famer will have given Brian Urlacher a public scolding. First Hall of Fame running back Gale Sayers got into a war of words with Urlacher, then Hall of Fame linebacker Dick Butkus took Sayers' side. Now Hall of Fame defensive tackle Dan Hampton and Hall of Fame tight end (and former head coach) Mike Ditka are dressing Urlacher down as well. Hampton told ESPN Chicago that Urlacher needs thicker skin. "You can't have thin skin if you can't win," Hampton said. "That's just the way it is. Buddy Ryan used t…

http://blogs.suntimes.com/bears/2010/05/mi...port_day_1.html Minicamp report: Day 1 By Neil Hayeson May 21, 2010 11:35 AM | Permalink | Comments (0) | TrackBacks (0) Brian Urlacher made a leaping interception of a Jay Cutler pass. Julius Peppers lined up at right and left end and pressured quarterbacks several times, even knocking the ball out of Cutler's hand once. Rookie safety Major Wright, a noted big hitter in college, had to be reminded that the Bears first minicamp practice was a non-contact affair. "It felt good," Peppers said. "It has been a while since we had the helmets on so getting back to football activities is a good thing." It was only a M…

To quote 'Escape from New York' - "I thought you were dead". Hell no. Might as well bring back Crystal Chandelier. Let him stay retired. http://www.suntimes.com/sports/football/be...mully24.article Peace

took part in one, picked @ 4, heres how I did 1. Ray Rice (Bal - RB) 2. Miles Austin (Dal - WR) 3. Tom Brady (NE - QB) 4. C.J. Spiller (Buf - RB) 5. Visanthe Shiancoe (Min - TE) 6. Robert Meachem (NO - WR) 7. Justin Forsett (Sea - RB) 8. Golden Tate (Sea - WR) 9. Austin Collie (Ind - WR) 10. Lee Evans (Buf - WR) 11. LaDainian Tomlinson (NYJ - RB) 12. Jermaine Gresham (Cin - TE) 13. David Garrard (Jac - QB) 14. Robbie Gould (Chi - K) 15. Buffalo (Buf - DEF) tis a boom or bust draft methinks, Brady in 3rd round is great value Shiancoe & meachem had11 & 9 Td's respectively last year. LT is a risk pick but that OL…

With no pads, it's damn near impossible to grade the lines & defense since they went through the motions. Here's my thoughts on QB's, WR's, and the TE's: 1. The radio guys talked about the all great catches but the secondary was avoiding contact. If you hear the media say, "He made a dazzling one-handed grab" there was typically a safety boring down on the receiver. In live action there'd have been no catch. Our QB's completed like 50 consecutive passes. 2. DA was constantly targeted by Cutler. He made some nice catches where he had to adjust his body and he'd go up and get it. He looks like Andre the Giant next to our other WR's cause they're so short…

HAve posted this in the other forum but want to put it here as it will probably be seen quicker Used to have all the posts on a page now when I go into a thread I have to click a link to read each new post. This new or have i done something to make it happen? Makes it impossible to follow a thread

I would assume that the old adage applies here; "no news is good news" but just wanted to see if any of you "locals" had heard anything more on Urlacher's status and his calf. Would figure that it shouldn't affect him too much but these days, who knows? I say keep him out for the rest of Preseason, regardless. Let Roach get some more reps in.

Can we please sign him long term. I know his contract is up after this year. At least its been said that he will be back for the 3rd preseason game against the Cardinals. Although seeing Clark taking the duties for the day was very much hilarious. I couldn't stop laughing. Just proves to people that with a Long Snapper that you never know how important it is until your backup is in there lol.

Per Bears website

How did crushers get both Rodgers and Cris Johnson, doesnt seem fair.

I had about 6 too many yesterday but to comment on the posts 1. oline is horrible at point of attack in run game. See also goaline plays a. Brandon MonMon is about as useful as shit flavored ice cream. How many times can a person slip or get blown out of a hole by a LB? b. Kruetz is washed up when it comes to run blocking 2. Urlacher is in rare form. Looked like 06. 3. I know he gets alot of love but Zach Bowman sucks. 4. The fumbles are pathetic. Forte i have three words.... What the F? olsen must be a total pussy. The guy whiffed on him 5. Peppers anihilates anyone on the other side of him. Guy is r…

In my morning perusal, read on another board about the prospect of the Bears entertaining the idea or signing Adalius Thomas in light of the recent loss of Hillenmeyer. Why not? Don't think it really will happen, as the Jets and Dolphins are much more interested, but intriguing nonetheless. Also from the Chicagobears.com website: Read that Forte won the "NFC player of the week" - http://www.chicagobears.com/news/NewsStory.asp?story_id=7076 And this from Larry Mayer's blog - Do the Bears lead the NFL in any statistical categories after their Week 1 win over the Lions? David H. San Antonio, Texas As a team, the Bears are tied with the Col…
