Chris Williams who? John St. Clair and rest of Bears O-line look impressive in defeat
PRESEASON WEEK 1 Kansas City 24, Chicago 20 - ESPN Box Score When your first-round pick, and instrumental cog piece to a seemingly, already mediocre offensive line, undergoes potential season-ending surgery , you have the right to worry. A day after left tackle, Chris Williams, had surgery to repair a herniated disc in his lower back - an injury unrelated to the one that had been ...

Bears’ first depth chart contradicts reports on position Danieal Manning will play
We’re already aware that Danieal Manning is believed to be the distant cousin of former Bears cornerback, Ricky Manning, Jr. What isn’t clear, however, is why the first depth chart of the summer shows Danieal “manning” the safety position and not nickel back...
Training Camp highlights now private
 
Just a short couple of days after praising SportsFansNetwork for broadcasting to the public – what remains to most of us — a private event, they have changed course and decided to make their video highlights of the Bears’ 2008 Training Camp…well, private. And apparently, the only way to view the highlights now are through invitation. Nonetheless, you can still view ...

 Bears want Kevin Jones to drop weight like it’s hot
Bears want Kevin Jones to drop weight like it’s hot
With respect to safety Mike Brown, Bears running back Kevin Jones has to be the most physically ripped of all the players on the Bears squad. Even after rehabilitation from knee surgery limited his movement, Jones entered training camp looking as stalwart and impressive as ever. Even so, the Bears would like...

Chicago Bears Training Camp highlights from Days 1, 2, & 3
Matt Forte looks quick — really quick Earl Bennett has some seriously nice hands Kyle Orton and Rex Grossman apparently can hit the tight end up the seam Orton threw a bunch of picks (something like 3 or 4) You’ve heard it before, but Rashied Davis really is impressive; No. 1 receiver potential? Trumaine McBride was all over the ball; nickel spot is his to lose

The Top 10 players most vital to the Chicago Bears’ success in 2008 - #5 Devin Hester
Continuing our list of…well…read the title, buddy. # 5. Devin Hester There is really no need for me, or anyone else, to mention how valuable Devin Hester is to the Chicago Bears. But, for the sake of the list, I will do it anyway. In two short years, Hester has managed to seize the role of top Bears superstar from linebacker Brian Urlacher. His style of play is exciting; his moves ...

Considering Kevin Jones is coming back from reconstructive knee surgery , a song entitled “Break Stuff” probably isn’t the best choice to score his highlight film. Regardless, here it is...

 Hester is half the man we thought he’d be?
Hester is half the man we thought he’d be?
Devin Hester might be the most exciting player in football, but how can you expect him to translate that moniker into success at the wide receiver position if he isn’t getting an ample amount of opportunities? As first pointed out by RotoWorld.com , David Haugh of the Chicago Tribune writes that he believes Hester playing half of the offensive snaps in 2008 is a realistic goal. ...

The Top 10 players most vital to the Chicago Bears’ success in 2008 - #6 Chris Williams
Much of the Bears’ success on offense this year will rest on Chris Williams’ ability to digest the blocking scheme and improve his run-blocking skills. If he does, Rex Grossman/Kyle Orton will have the much-needed time to throw and lanes will open for fellow rookie Matt Forte. If he fails, opposing defenses will be in the Bears backfield — as another famous Commodore put it — all night long...

The Top 10 players most vital to the Chicago Bears' success in 2008 - # 7 Rex Grossman
When a franchise places their faith in a man that looks like this, the forecast can seem bleak – I know. Many people forget, however, that the other option, Kyle Orton, has never been more than a caretaker. As witnessed in 2005, even with an elite defense and solid running game, a team can’t win in the playoffs unless they get some production from their quarterback...

Bears add running back Kevin Jones; Garrett Wolfe curses his small stature
Nicely done, Jerry Angelo. Nicely done. Just when it seemed like the Bears had lost interest in the Virginia Tech product, I wake up this morning to news that proves the Bears were probably entirely interested all along.
