And so it ends … When Calvin Johnson erroneously placed the football on the ground of the end zone in the closing seconds of the first game of the season, I immediately thought it would be a long season. The Bears were about to lose to the Lions … at home! However, thanks to the replay gods and an awful rule, the Bears were given a gift and a first-week win.

Chicago Bears Super Bowl Shuffle Re-Written with 2011 Team
Breaking down the Science of Bears WR/RS Devin Hester (Video)
We know that Chicago Bears return specialist Devin Hester is "ridiculous" when it comes to returning kicks. He broke the return touchdown record Monday night versus the Minnesota Vikings, and established himself as the greatest of all time in that particular endeavor. He also may be better at housing punt and kickoffs than anyone in history is at ever doing anything. I don't … [Read more...] about Breaking down the Science of Bears WR/RS Devin Hester (Video)

Alphonso Smith is the Goat for the Lions, Brady Hero for the Pats
The Detroit Lions fell flat on the biggest stage of the season for that franchise. I am talking about a figurative stage, not the one that Michigan born and bred Kid Rock performed on during the half. In fairness, the team did play well for the majority of the game. They did, however, fall flat on their face during the latter moments of play on Thursday. The few bright spots of … [Read more...] about Alphonso Smith is the Goat for the Lions, Brady Hero for the Pats
The Chicago Bear Necessities: Ground and Pound Attack
Ground and pound. It’s historically been the staple of the offensive scheme in the Chicago Bears organization since the team’s inception. Gale Sayers, Walter Payton, and Neal Anderson were all products of a system that worked – a power running game and a gruesome defense.

One place that always has great food is “Da Bus,” a renovated old school celebrating … [Read more...] about Bus Dedicated to Bears Tailgating Goes on National TV
