Cowboys can't stand up to Bears blitz
As a rule, the Bears' defensive scheme may be the most predictable in the NFL. But coordinator Rod Marinelli and the boys stepped out of character a bit Monday. They blitzed on nearly 23 percent of Tony Romo's dropbacks, mostly in the first half. It was...

Bears' forecast suddenly cloudy
There was bright sunshine at Soldier Field on Sunday, as much as we've seen at any game this year. It was considerably darker in the bowels of the stadium in the back room where injured players are laid on tables and poked and prodded, tested, X-rayed...

Briggs' mysterious tweets send misguided message on Collins
I don't know Jason Collins. I wish I did. Bravo for the NBA center's courage in becoming the first male athlete in a major North American league to declare he's gay. It’s a shame it’s a big deal. But now it’s less so. On Day 2 of this...

Playmaker Greene could be natural fit for Bears 'D'
If Khaseem Greene can do for the Bears what he did for Rutgers, he soon will be in a group that includes Lance Briggs, Charles Tillman, Julius Peppers and Henry Melton. Because what Greene did was make plays, as his new teammates have. In fact, you...

Briggs giving game his all, and appreciating it more
Brian Urlacher may play on opening day. He may not. He may run like the Urlacher of old. He may not. The uncertainty of Urlacher's situation makes the certainty of Lance Briggs' situation all the more comforting. Briggs answered the bell consistently...
