Bears new receiver has standout potential
The Bears appear to have received excellent value in acquiring Brandon Marshall for two third-round draft picks and there's little doubt he can make the Bears offense more dynamic and proficient.

Cutler can't step up
MINNEAPOLIS — To understand what kind of day it was for Jay Cutler, know that Jason Campbell, the allegedly incompetent backup, was able to put as many points on the board in one drive as Cutler was in 11. That's if you don't count the 14 points...

Kaepernick, 49ers maul Bears
SAN FRANCISCO — In 2009, the Cubs selected a strong, 6-foot-4-inch power pitcher named Colin Kaepernick in the 43rd round of the amateur baseball draft. So in some ways Kaepernick's right arm always seemed destined to disappoint Chicago one day....

Fading Bears need change -- the sooner the better
Of all the noise surrounding the Bears' 21-13 loss to the Packers on Sunday, general manager Phil Emery easily could ignore the pregame chatter that revealed his team as one unable to back up big talk. Emery could tune out telling boos from a fed-up fan...

Bears can learn a lot from Ravens
On the last day of the NFL regular season, the eventual Super Bowl champion Ravens lost for the fourth time in five games, and nothing about finishing 10-6 fueled their playoff drive with momentum. On the same day, the Bears won their second straight...

Bears 'D' the real force to be reckoned with
With the kind of viciousness Chicago would support if he were a Bear, Lions defensive tackle Ndamukong Suh violently slammed Jay Cutler into the Soldier Field sod hard enough Monday night to shake a football city's fan base. Suh's over-the-top...

Angelo deserves some credit for Bears' success
Contrary to the convenient but lazy local narrative being retold all week, Bears 2008 first-round draft bust Chris Williams didn't get former general manager Jerry Angelo fired. Not as much as Caleb Hanie did. If Hanie had played as well replacing Jay...

Vikings think Ponder will make great progress
MANKATO, Minn. — After losing 11 straight games to NFC North opponents, the Vikings' view of the division might be similar to an ant's view of a Redwood forest. But, believe it or not, they have high hopes. "Stranger things have happened," Vikings...
