Unbearable start to season
Tribune staff reporterWalking slowly off the field Sunday at 3Com Park after the Bears' humbling 49-7 loss to the 49ers, Brian Urlacher seldom looked up and never removed his helmet. His team didn't show up during the game, and Urlacher felt ashamed to show his face after it....Tags: Tommy Maddox, Dick Butkus, Jimmy Williams, Tai Streets, Josh Warner

Chandler's reply to 'mailing it in': 'Ridiculous'
Tribune staff reporterChris Chandler, like most veteran quarterbacks, has learned to negotiate that ambiguous line between playing with reckless abandon and resorting to caution and guile. A half-dozen concussions, assorted broken bones and some sprained ankles are his badges...Tags: National Football League, Leon Johnson, Olin Kreutz, Kevin Dogins, Sports

Bear with us: Play-by-play commentary
ChicagoSports.comWelcome to the Bears' final Monday night game of the season--maybe ever. After this season, you've got to think they would have to win the Super Bowl for ABC to stick them back on the air. You think Dave Wannstedt isn't looking forward to this game?...Tags: Larry Csonka, Keith Traylor, ABC (tv network), Brock Marion, 2016 Olympic Games

List of wounded grows
Tribune staff reporterThe 2002 injury nightmare worsened for the Bears on Sunday. Already without their best pass-rushing defensive lineman, they lost their best run-stopper when Pro Bowl tackle Ted Washington went out after turning his left ankle early in the second quarter....Tags: Alfonso Boone, Terrence Metcalf, Sports, Football, Rosevelt Colvin

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: National Football League, Sean Harris, Shane Matthews, Clyde Simmons, Cade McNown

From down to delirious
Tribune staff reporterForgive them for acting a little silly. For offering up metaphors for life. And crediting a change to green Gatorade from orange. For sprawling on the Soldier Field turf when the day was over and making grass angels until they didn't know whether to laugh...Tags: Soldier Field, National Football League, Detroit Lions, Sports, Chris Penn

Doing it all but winning
Tribune staff reporterPerhaps it is a measure of how bad last season was, how demoralizing four lethargic, emotionless exhibition losses were, that a 24-23 loss to a Super Bowl contender such as the Jacksonville Jaguars seemed vaguely like a win. The Bears rushed for 132...Tags: Soldier Field, National Football League, Walt Harris, NFL Preseason, Jacksonville Jaguars

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: National Football League, Walt Harris, Shane Matthews, Clyde Simmons, Cade McNown

Another blow: Tucker hurt
Tribune staff reporterThe Bears' injury nightmare deepened Monday night when left guard Rex Tucker was carted off the field in the third quarter with a dislocated ankle. Tucker, a Pro Bowl alternate last season, could be lost for the season. Tucker signed a six-year...Tags: Buffalo Bills, Atlanta Falcons, Keith Traylor, Fred Baxter, David Terrell

In clutch, Bears pack it in
Tribune staff reporterThey come wrapped in different packages each week. Dressed up or dressed down depending on the locale or the stakes involved. They are a big disappointment or a bigger disappointment or, worse yet, as it was Sunday in the Bears' 26-20 loss to Green Bay,...Tags: Walt Harris, Sports, Football, Billiards, Snooker and Pool, Dorsey Levens

The big, bad Bears
Tribune staff reporterDeep down, coach Dave Wannstedt had to know that a rookie quarterback--prophetic name or not--would not be the answer to his problems. And sure enough, Moses Moreno, despite a flash or two, played like a rookie Sunday in the Bears' 31-17 loss to the Tampa...Tags: Soldier Field, National Football League, John Thierry, Sports, Football

Bears hurt, angry
Tribune staff reporterYou were scared for them at first. Seriously frightened that for the first time in the annals of organized sport, a team might actually be ground into the artificial turf and disappear. Minnesota's offense operated as if running its pregame walkthrough,...Tags: Randall Cunningham, Walt Harris, Jake Reed, Sports, Football
