The 2014/ 2015 NFL season is right around the corner. Every fan has their favorite team or player and everyone believes it is their year. For many of us that will not be the case at all and the thought of a Super Bowl crown will fade fast. But what battle can always go on? The battle of the NFL Meme is something anyone can...
There is nothing worse for a fantasy football junkie then checking your team Sunday night and seeing that your top receiver had two catches for 34 yards and no touchdowns. Whether you are in a PPR league or standard scoring this weak performance will dramatically hurt your chances of winning your weakly match-up. In my personal...
It was a perfect day for football on July 28th, a very light breeze, little cloud cover, and around 70 degrees. Fans were excited, and it couldn't have been any more perfect, and so was my experience covering my first Bears camp as a member of the media. Here are my takeaways from my day at Bears camp.
Much of the...
It's NFL Draft day! Fans such as myself wait and wonder what moves Bears general manager Phil Emery will make in his third draft. In 2012 Phil drafted then-defensive end Shea McClellin. After two years of poor sack totals for a first-round pick, McClellin is moving to linebacker. Phil is hoping this move will pay off and bring out...
With the release of the Bears' 2014 schedule, it’s time to predict what the team's record will be this season. In previewing a set of four games over the span of four articles, we will end up with a final prediction of how the Bears will finish in 2014. In the case of my article last week comparing Chicago to Green Bay, the best way...
There will be those that would say, not while Aaron Rodgers exists in the same division, those that would say not while Cutler is at the helm of the offense, and those that would say the Bears are known to disappoint year after year. While these may be truths that would have passed prior to the 2013 season, they won’t fly under the...
The year was 2006, and a young cornerback by the name of Devin Hester was about to embark on a journey. Picked by the Chicago Bears in the second round, Hester was about to ignite a fan base. The words electric was used for the cornerback turned wide receiver/punt returner, though his selection would be a widely criticized move at a...
Almost a decade has passed since a Chicago Bears receiver obtained a thousand yards in a season. The drought was ended after the 2012 season thanks to moves made by then new Bears GM Phil Emery at the beginning of the 2012 free agency period. Emery made a big acquisition in Brandon Marshall, in a trade with the Miami Dolphins. From any...
The Chicago Bears announced Thursday morning that they have signed franchise quarterback Jay Cutler to a seven year contract. Official figures have been released, and Cutler will make 18 million in the first three years of the deal with 54 million guaranteed and a total of 126 million . Cutler was traded to the Bears back in 2009 from...
The next two weeks of the regular season may very well decide Cutler's future with the Chicago Bears. Chicago took sole possession of the NFC north on the heels of a Baltimore Ravens 18-16 victory over the Detroit Lions on December 16th. Justin Tucker answered the call for Chicago fans barely making a 61-yard field goal, creating a do or...
