Stop Marshall, you stop the Bears offense
When you are handed a fresh defensive game plan in the NFL, the amount of information that is suddenly dropped into your lap can be overwhelming. It starts with personnel. Then it moves to down-and-distance tendencies, alignments, formations, play...

Trestman should open up world of opportunity for Bears
I spent Wednesday afternoon looking over old game plans and going through worn notebooks in my home office after the Bears hired Marc Trestman as their coach. I started with Andy Reid's offense, then Jon Gruden's and Sean Payton's. My notes on route...

Trestman's task: Succeed with Cutler where others have failed
Sitting there listening to Marc Trestman elucidate at his introductory news conference at Halas Hall, the vision appeared. Jay Cutler, career year in 2013. Yes, I saw it. Of that I am certain. OK, so I've seen purple elephants before. Trestman wasn'...

Bears dependence on Marshall exposes flaws
If the Packers take away Brandon Marshall as effectively as they did in their September matchup, and the Bears stay true to character, there is no chance the Bears will score enough points to win Sunday. That is the reality of their offense. So when...

Bears will present different look with Marshall
In the Bears' victory over the Vikings, Jay Cutler and the offense leaned on the Spot route (Corner-Flat-Curl combination) to target Brandon Marshall in third-and-2 to -6 situations. Look for the Bears to add some window dressing Sunday in their...

Cutler helps himself with fancy footwork
The player most responsible for keeping Jay Cutler clean Sunday was Jay Cutler. The quarterback did a number of things well. What he did best was avoid pressure. Cutler moved in the pocket before throwing six times. Cutler also rolled out four times....

If Bears can't gain half-yard, they deserve to lose
Lovie Smith was wrong. About being wrong, that is. The situation: The Bears had a seven-point lead and were faced with a fourth-and-half-a-yard to go on the Seahawks' 15 on their first possession of the second quarter. To the delight of the...

Bears don't respond like a playoff team in loss
As shaken Seahawks wide receiver Sidney Rice lay flat on his back in the end zone after scoring the winning touchdown Sunday in Seattle's 23-17 overtime victory over the Bears, fans gave him a warped welcome to the southeast corner of Soldier Field....

There's no crying in football
So, let me get this right: The Bears are supposed to follow a guy reduced to tears? The Bears, I’m talking. The Chicago Bears. You remember them: They used to be tough. Now, after yet another loss to a better team and a better organization, they...

Bears' offense is light years from what I saw last weekend
You know what happened last weekend? Quarterbacking happened, that’s what. Offense happened. Points happened. You know what else happened? Yet another example of how far the Bears' offense is from being championship-worthy, that’s...

Big-talkin' Marshall didn't talk big enough
After another miserable performance against the Packers on Sunday, Brandon Marshall said everyone on offense must be accountable, “even if that means jobs.’’ A day after his team lost for the fifth time in six games, Bears coach...

Emery's bold choice could be inspired -- or disastrous
For a guy who comes across as a button-down football conservative, Bears general manager Phil Emery continues to take bold risks that defined his first year on the job. For such a humble man, Emery sure seems intent on proving he is the smartest guy in...
