Reader Q&A: Dan Pompei's Bears mailbag
Chicago Tribune reporterHow concerned are you about Brian Urlacher? Do you think his knee is something that could really hinder his performance during the upcoming year?

A tiptop feeling
Tribune staff reporter"The first-place, division-leading Bears . . . " It's a phrase that hasn't been uttered often in Chicago over the last decade. But after the Bears' 24-0 dismantling of the Cincinnati Bengals and the Minnesota Vikings' win over Green Bay on Sunday, it...Tags: Chicago Bears, Rex Tucker, R.W. McQuarters, James Williams, Fred Baxter

Intermission ignition
Tribune staff reporterIf the Bears can turn a 17-10 comeback victory over the Minnesota Vikings into the foundation for a season, one 12-minute stretch Sunday will loom as the turning point. It was not on the field. It was in the locker room at halftime, when the Bears made...Tags: Chicago Bears, James Williams, Brad Maynard, Death, Daunte Culpepper

A Jim-Dandy win
Tribune staff reporterJim Miller needed neither ammunition nor anyone's permission to gloat Sunday. The point was so obvious, it barely needed to be made. Miller took the same team, the same teammates and essentially the same offense and did what Cade McNown had largely...Tags: Chicago Bears, New York Jets, National Football League, Paul Edinger, Shane Matthews

Aging Raiders top fading division
Tribune pro football reporterThe AFC West is having trouble getting jump-started.

Homing in on big goal
Tribune staff reporterThe game plan was simple and one the Bears had talked about all week: Jump out on the vulnerable Detroit Lions early and the Lions would shut down, as a lot of one-win teams would do at this time of a lost season. The Bears did exactly what they wanted...Tags: Chicago Bears, D'Wayne Bates, R.W. McQuarters, Warrick Holdman, Basketball

KO punch connects early
Tribune staff reporterThe biggest play of the game doesn't always come with 0:00 on the clock, or in a sudden-death overtime finish. Not every week. Not Sunday. The Bears and their fans may be spoiled by the team's recent stunning comeback climaxes against San Francisco...Tags: Lifestyle and Leisure, Chicago Bears, Brett Favre, Soldier Field, Walt Harris

John Mullin's answers
I wonder if the Bears feel differently now on passing up the opportunity to obtain Bledsoe? --Bill Thieben, Kewanee, Ill. That's an easy told-you-so, but it's oversimplistic. Bears fans would be shrieking if he was getting sacked behind a line that...Tags: Chicago Bears, Brett Favre, Rex Tucker, Buffalo Bills, National Football League

Well-grounded plan
Tribune Staff WriterThey were all so, well, happy. Buoyant even. And in a sadly twisted way, bitter at the same time. The offensive line that just wanted to put in an honest day's work. The running back who wondered what might have been. A quarterback and his wide...Tags: Chicago Bears, Cade McNown, Eddie Kennison, James Williams, New England Patriots

Allen joins elite club with flourish
Tribune Staff WriterSometimes history goes just the way you would have written it. It did Sunday for James Allen.

Humbling lesson in reality
Tribune staff reporterSo much for keeping up with the big boys. So much for playoff hopes dangling by a mathematical thread. Beating the Detroit Lions, as it turns out, doesn't mean much when you're playing a real playoff team. And easy schedule, easy conference or not,...Tags: Chicago Bears, James Williams, Tony Parrish, National Football League, Sean Harris
