Quarterly Review - Hard to draw too many conclusions about bipolar Bears

02 Oct 2008 11:19:50 PDT

Written by Ryan Tennant
The division as a whole looks to be up for grabs. Minnesota has badly underachieved so far and has quarterback issues, which is a kind way of saying they are completely desperate for anything approximating a NFL-caliber quarterback. Aaron Rodgers has shown flashes of brilliance for Green...

I think Rashied Davis is the best in the slot. Yes! Do you think Jerry Angelo and Lovie Smith are on the hot seat? Would a deep run in the playoffs take them off? Speaking of the division, looking at Minnesota. Is Tavaris Jackson just that bad?

Chicago Bears VS. Tampa Bay Buccaneers - Preview

Written by ChiFan13
Griese has seen the Bears defense, and the Bears defense has seen Griese. Griese had 160 yards against the Falcons and not only that, he’s not known for his explosive offense. I feel confident in saying that the Bears defense will get to Griese, and it will not be a happy reunion.

The standard Super Bowl recipe -- one part chili, 99 parts testosterone -- has been spiced up this year with a pinch of "man crush." Take, for example, die-hard Chicago Bears fan Jeff Hughes, co-founder of a Web site called Da' Bears Blog. On the blog, Hughes wrote about his man crush a couple o...

Brian Griese: Upon Further Review

28 Oct 2007 18:33:30 PDT

Flip-flopping is generally reserved for politicians. Today, this sports fan reserves the right to flip-flop on Chicago Bears starting quarterback Brian Griese. Last week, I said that I was wrong about Griese after the Bears come-from-behind victory against the Eagles. Granted, I also n...

Eight months since their trip to the Super Bowl, they're 1-3, banged up in bad places, on their second quarterback, who's no better than their first quarterback, and they were just embarrassed by the Detroit Lions. Over at ESPN, it's Packers across the board, both of them.

With a storied history of losing in the nation’s capital, the next Lion test comes next week against the Washington Redskins. Can they win? Absolutely. Let’s have faith in the new Detroit administration. The Detroit Lions bounced back in a big way and set an NFL record with 34 points in the fou...

Film review: Cowboys vs. Bears (defense)

25 Sep 2007 22:22:41 PDT

Written by Dave Halprin (Grizz)
The surprise of the game for me on film was Stephen Bowen. He was in the game a lot more than usual and he made some plays. In the first series of the game he rushed the QB from a standing position as the Cowboys were playing games at the line and got to Grossman to force an incomplete pass. In a series l...

Kick and punt coverage – Excellent. All week we worried about Devin Hester but he was a total non-factor. Guys like Pat Watkins, Sam Hurd, Keith Davis and Bobby Carpenter made sure Hester went nowhere. Davis poked the ball lose for a fumble and Watkins had a great tackle on coverage. Watkins als...

Forget about the dream Week 1 matchup. Forget about Ladainian Tomlinson vs. Brian Urlacher or Brian Urlacher vs. Shawn Merriman or Ron Turner vs. Norv Turner or that the man's name is Norv -- short for Norval. This game hinges on one thing and one thing only. That Nike commercial.

Little game Sunday. Maybe you've heard about it. Bears-Colts in Super Bowl XLI. The rest of the ESPN folks take the Colts. Carrot Top likes the Colts, Steve Kerr the Bears and Mario Batali likes Indianapolis, salami and cannolis, not in that order.

Peyton Manning vs. Rex Grossman. On Jim Rome is Burning, the title character suggested that Rex Grossman is probably pumped that he's facing Manning because Manning is the only quarterback in the NFL who could enter a Super Bowl facing more pressure than Grossman.
