In their annual release, CBSSports.com ranks their top fantasy players at each position. Bears-specific, you’ll likely find some of their prognostications startling and others per usual. CBSSports’ Jamey Eisenberg and Dave Richard have the call. (more…)

Here is the deal: We don’t have time, nor always the will, to make a post out of every semi-significant Bears-related tidbit that hits the InterWeb. But, to satisfy you readers and make sure that we keep on top of everything, we’re bringing you short and precise annotated Bears highlights every Monday and Thursday. This is our link-dumpish effort. (more…)

1o Bears are slated to become free agents — both unrestricted and restricted — when free agency officially begins on Friday. Below: who, and the likelihood they’ll return to the team. (more…)

In what might be one of the staunchest cases ever of people performing not to be fired, the Bears, playing with heart and conviction for maybe the first time all season, defeated the Minnesota Vikings 36-30 in overtime tonight. Lovie Smith is glowing. (more…)

Since Jim McMahon, men who have played quarterback while simultaneously donning a Chicago Bears uniform have (mostly) sucked. You can outright fault the organization or pacifyingly fault the organization, but no matter what, nothing can save these 27 poor souls from an unenvious shared history; having been through, what many believe to be, “quarterback hell”. (more…)

To piggy back off of what Shea’s last post stated, I believe the Bears last drive possession of the football was the season in review. If you only caught those four plays at the end of the game, you were able to see exactly how the 2009 season has gone for our Bears. These four plays nearly cost me my sanity.

An aside: who else feels like that poor guy in the picture? (more…)

No, seriously: I should move and start a new career as a bookie, at least as far as the Bears are concerned. I have been, some would argue, unfortunately accurate in my predictions and statements about this years Bears team. I don’t even do this full-time! I can predict Cutler interceptions, foresee the Bears getting torched by Kurt Warner & Co. and now (as if it was a surprise) correctly identify the most glaring weakness of the 2009 Chicago Bears….

In October, marketing geniuses for the Chicago Blackhawks decided that it would be a good idea to get players from their team and the Chicago Bears together for a wonderful series of cross-promotional commercials. Well, today, the NFL decided it was not, in fact, such a legal idea. Now, we’ll never get to see the on-camera chemistry between Devin Hester and Patrick Kane! Seriously, they were paired up.

As the figurative end to the Bears season is sure to come far before the literal end this year — like now! — the Bears had better figure out what exactly is on the roster. Looking forward to an offseason with a cheap general manager and a lack of high draft picks, there are going to be limited avenues to really land quality projected starters for 2010. (more…)

The best thing about beating a team like the Cleveland Browns is getting to wipe the arrogant, holier-than-thou smirk off all of their faces; showing everybody that even the little guy can win for once; sticking it to the privileged kids. Really, who the hell do they think they are? … Oh, wait. They’re the Cleveland Browns. (more…)
