Bear with us: Play-by-play commentary
ChicagoSports.comHere we go again. Another Monday night experience for the Bears. Players always say Monday Night Football is a chance to prove something to your peers, a chance for the entire country to watch you play. This Bears team is out to prove they're not one...Tags: Brian Urlacher, Dez White, Football, Dre' Bly, Troy Edwards

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: Shane Matthews, Eddie Kennison, New England Patriots, National Football League, James Allen

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. On a first down at the New England Patriots' 16-yard line, Allen took a handoff from quarterback Shane Matthews, circled left end behind a crushing block by...Tags: Shane Matthews, New England Patriots, Chicago Bears, Casey Wiegmann, National Basketball Association

Competition ferocious for top quarterbacks
Tribune pro football reporterUniversity of Florida quarterback Rex Grossman will be watching the April 26 NFL draft in Chicago with his sister, Ashley Fox, who lives in town. If the Bears pick him, he said, "That'd be nice to just drive over." Until the NFL scouting combine...Tags: National Football League, Colleges and Universities, Chicago Bears, Brian Billick, Baltimore Ravens

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: Shane Matthews, National Football League, Chicago Bears, Alonzo Mayes, Tony Parrish

No nod for Matthews
Tribune staff reporterAfter a 2-2 exhibition season, three lowly opponents and a 35-24 loss in the wrap-up Saturday night, the Bears figure they have at least one trump card to throw at Kansas City in the season opener two weeks from Sunday. They refuse to name their starting...Tags: Shane Matthews, Glyn Milburn, D'Wayne Bates, Chicago Bears, Quarterly or Semiannual Financial Statements

Interceptions, drops deluge soggy Bears
Tribune staff reporterA typically sloppy preseason game? Or a game typical of what will be a sloppy team? You make the call. Actually, the replay official did in reversing a safety after Pittsburgh's block of a Todd Sauerbrun punt and calling it a touchdown to give the...Tags: Shane Matthews, Marty Booker, Todd Sauerbrun, Chicago Bears, Alonzo Mayes

Inconsistent McNown successful in the end
Tribune staff reporterBased on the most significant playing time of his fledgling pro career, Cade McNown's rookie season will be nothing if not suspenseful. And the Bears are sure to follow. Youthful 3-yard touchdown run. Two rookie interceptions. Dramatic 20-yard touchdown...Tags: Shane Matthews, St. Louis Rams, Jim Miller, Daunte Culpepper, D'Wayne Bates

McNown gets positive review from his coach
Tribune staff reporterHe received his "Welcome-to-the-NFL, son" four plays into his pro career, a Colts sandwich that left Cade McNown picking himself up 9 yards behind the line of scrimmage and surely knowing what they meant when they warned him about the speed of pro...Tags: Shane Matthews, Baltimore Colts, National Football League, Todd Sauerbrun, Chicago Bears

Banged up? Bang-up job
Tribune staff reporterThey are 3-2 and kings of the universe. A real team with serious goals, an agenda and an attitude. They are one victory short of their season total for each of the last two seasons, but you'd never know it. Never guess that this was the same team that...Tags: Hospitals and Clinics, Mike Wells, McDonald's, Football, Randall Cunningham

McNown hook creates 3-way QB controversy
Tribune staff reporterThis is not the quarterback controversy anyone had in mind, but the Bears just backed themselves into a three-way debate involving youth, experience and a guy in street clothes who nurses a sore hamstring and is looking better and better all the time....Tags: Shane Matthews, Jim Miller, National Football League, Todd Sauerbrun, Chicago Bears

2-minute drillers
Tribune staff reporterYou could hardly blame them. It's pouring rain. Their team hadn't shown the ability to move the ball without turning it over, much less score. From the opposing sideline, Mike Ditka, for crying out loud, was glowering at his team to close it out. None of...Tags: Shane Matthews, Eddie Kennison, Ashley Ambrose, Todd Sauerbrun, Chicago Bears
