More Trouble For Chicago Bears Defensive Tackle Tommie Harris
Published on: 26th October, 2009
Remember the good old days when Bears coach Lovie Smith and defensive tackle Tommie Harris were fellow Texans in arms, working for a common cause? Apparently those days are long gone.

Published on: 25th October, 2009
CINCINNATI—Apparently Tommie Harris was doing a lot more than everyone thought. The Bears played without their once dominant, now perpetually convalescing defensive tackle, and made him look good by producing their worst defensive effort since Lovie Smith became coach in a 45-10 loss Sunday to the Cincinnati Bengals. This was ugly. It ...Jay Cutler Earning His Money The Hard Way With Chicago Bears
Published on: 20th October, 2009
The Bears paid Jay Cutler but they’ll be fortunate to get their money’s worth this season unless something changes. Cutler’s two-year contract extension pays him $20 million in bonuses and $30 million total new money while keeping him under contract through 2013. It’s a wise move for the Bears because waiting to ...Jay Cutler-to-Greg Olsen Connection Falls Flat For Chicago Bears

A funny thing happened on tight end Greg Olsen’s way to becoming quarterback Jay Cutler’s go-to guy. Cutler got to some other receivers.

Published on: 4th October, 2009
The Bears could call it a special victory Sunday, even if defeat and Detroit have become synonyms in recent years. Everyone from the special teams, to the defense, to quarterback Jay Cutler, to running back Matt Forte and even the coaching staff had big parts in a 48-24 victory at Soldier ...Chicago Bears Offense Coming Together In Pieces
Published on: 30th September, 2009
The Bears’ offense is coming together piece by piece. It’s just that the pieces aren’t fitting together in the order many thought they would. “I know it is going to take some time and I knew it wasn’t going to be the first week, and it’s hard to make everything gel the ...Lovie Smith’s Philosophical Alteration Helps Chicago Bears to 2-1 Mark
Published on: 29th September, 2009
If one person is more responsible for the Bears owning a 2-1 record, it’s obviously quarterback Jay Cutler for engineering two fourth-quarter rallies.
