One year after making history he didn’t want to make in Detroit (being the first 0-16 team in NFL history), Rod Marinelli will attempt to turn around a Bears defense that struggled in 2008. Chicago has every reason to believe the 60-year-old assistant head coach and defensive line coach of the Bears will be able to [...] Michael Vick is currently searching for a team willing to take a chance on his immense physical gifts. Any team must decide whether or not the underlying risk is worth the reward. I’m not really prepared to discuss whether or not Vick should be playing. That was for the National Football League to decide, and they’ve made [...] August 5th, 2009 | Tags: Michael Vick, NFL, quarterback | Category: Commentary | Leave a comment | Share:
Like most every other NFL team, there is concern of what happens if Bears starting quarterback Jay Cutler was injured during the season.

Stepping up our training camp coverage Caleb Benoit, Sports Editor As perhaps the area’s biggest sporting event approaches, we are getting all hands — and reporters’ notebooks — on deck.

As I approached Ward Field to watch the Chicago Bears practice, I was kicking myself for agreeing to do an article because I had no ideas about what angle to approach it from. But I decided to watch the practice through the eyes of a basketball coach. By Steve Soucie, sports writer Chicago Bears wide receiver coach Darryl Drake is apparently a closet baseball fan. So when Drake drew the comparison of the unfortunate tale of former New York Yankee Wally Pipp as a possible jumping off point for his crew of largely untested and unknown wide receivers, it seemed apt.
