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: Ashley Ambrose, Mike Wells, Curtis Conway, Sports, Alonzo Mayes

Bears left in the cold
Tribune staff reporterIt was a miserable Sunday at Soldier Field. Penetrating cold, gusting winds, pelting rain turning to sleet. The kind of day that makes football teams look bad. Only in this case, while the Bears were huddled against the elements, slipping, bobbling and...Tags: Mike Wells, Sports, Alonzo Mayes, Brett Favre, De'Mond Parker

No gain, just pain for Bears
Tribune staff reporterJim Flanigan's jaw was clenched so tightly, his teeth threatened to shatter under the pressure, and you wonder how much a six-year Bears veteran can take. You wonder how many more of these any of them can absorb and dissect and move past when every week,...Tags: National Football League, Marcus Robinson, Gary Anderson, Randy Moss, Sports

Believe it, even if Chiefs can't
Tribune staff reporterYes, those were your Chicago Bears at Soldier Field on Sunday. Essentially the same guys in the same uniforms you saw taking a knee at the two-minute warnings and running their tailbacks off left guard on third-and-11. The same franchise that has drummed...Tags: Mike Wells, National Football League, Derrick Alexander, Curtis Conway, Sports

8 to 88 a catchy combo
Tribune staff reporterIf Bears fans were still searching for signs that this is a team worthy of their time, faith and emotional investment, then Sunday's 28-10 victory over the Detroit Lions offered perhaps the most solid evidence yet that they might want to hang in there....Tags: Basketball, Marcus Robinson, Randy Moss, Sports, Ron Rice

Bears' faith intact
Tribune staff reporterThere are all kinds of reasons for the Bears to have a Monday morning hangover. Solid, valid, quantifiable reasons that explain a 3-8 slide to close the season, a 6-10 record and by all rights should leave a team with a sour taste heading into a long off-...Tags: Mike Wells, Basketball, Marcus Robinson, Sports, Jim Flanigan

Half an effort doesn't cut it
Tribune staff reporterThe assumption is that something other than their own excellence was responsible for making the Philadelphia Eagles look like a playoff team Sunday. The question is, did Cade McNown's debut as starting quarterback slow up the Bears just enough to stumble...Tags: Philadelphia Eagles, National Football League, Marcus Robinson, Sports, Brett Favre

In a word, 'embarrassing'
Tribune staff reporterThis was a loss of a supposedly bygone era, when humiliation could spring up on any given Sunday, morale always a fragile proposition and the whole lot if it's serving as more evidence of a disintegrating season. If the Bears' 48-22 loss to the...Tags: Mike Wells, Washington Redskins, Natural Resources, Marcus Robinson, Sports

Sinking in the rain
Tribune staff reporterUnofficially, the 2000 Bears season expired when still another Shane Matthews pass was deflected at the line of scrimmage Sunday, this one on fourth-and-3 with 1 minute 40 seconds remaining. But this was a game and a season that died many deaths. It...Tags: Mike Wells, Paul Edinger, Phillip Daniels, Sports, New York Jets

Starting days may be over
It became clear this week that Bears quarterback Jim Miller may have started his last game this season.
Miller will see a specialist next week for further evaluation of the shoulder and elbow tendinitis that has knocked him out of the starting lineup...Tags: Basketball, Dustin Lyman, John Gilmore, Sports, Reggie Austin

No defending Bears' defeat
Tribune staff reporterThe return of wide receiver Marcus Robinson on Saturday, complete with two touchdown passes from Cade McNown on the Bears' first two possessions, was overshadowed by a defensive performance marked by some of the same problems that caused the Bears to rank...Tags: Marcus Robinson, Paul Edinger, Akili Smith, Marlon Barnes, Sports

Not too bad for starters
Tribune staff reporterSuccess in NFL exhibition games cannot be judged by conventional criteria. That is, were any key players injured? Did the rookies embarrass themselves? Did coaches learn anything? And, oh, yeah, did the team win? By those standards, the Bears had an...Tags: Kerry Collins, Dustin Lyman, Tiki Barber, Brent Bartholomew, Sports
