Earl Bennett normally does his #StoryTimeWithEarl segments at the end of the week. However, he made an exception upon hearing the news that former Chicago Bears backup quarterback Josh McCown had announced his retirement from the NFL after 17 seasons. A feat that few have matched at that position....
David Montgomery is a rookie. He has yet to play a down in the NFL. This makes it difficult to place him in any sort of rankings among other backs in the league because it would be entirely based on projections rather than proven productivity. Sure he was excellent at Iowa State and appears to have...
It would be easy for the Chicago Bears to feel pretty good about themselves going into 2019. Why shouldn't they? This is a relatively young group that went 12-4 last year, won the NFC North and came a missed field goal away from knocking off the defending Super Bowl champions in the playoffs. Now...
GM Ryan Pace has a growing reputation for being able to find quality talent in the later rounds of the draft. This is an art few of the general managers in football possess. Sure some will get hits from time to time, but most can rarely string it together from year to year. Pace is one of those...
The Chicago Bears front office appears to have a greater degree of luck than the coaching staff. For the longest time, it's felt like the Bears have always lost quality assistants when things were getting good. Buddy Ryan left to become a head coach in 1986. Ron Rivera left in 2007 after getting to...
The Chicago Bears haven't been in this position for a long time. A team with Super Bowl expectations, not just aspirations. Last memories of this feeling were 2010 and 2011 when the team looked and felt like a potential champion. Not only because they had a strong enough roster, but also because...
When he was hired as defensive coordinator, Chuck Pagano promised that he would do everything in his power to make sure the Chicago Bears defense doesn't go through any drastic changes. He wasn't lying. Only a fool would try to make sweeping alterations to the #1 defense in football. Pagano knows...
Everybody likes to form a picture in their heads every offseason of how a roster will look. Excitement is so high that they often favor new things over established things. It's just human nature. That would explain why guys like Riley Ridley, Cordarrelle Patterson, Emanuel Hall, and Marvin Hall...
Matt Nagy had a surprise for his Chicago Bears at the beginning of minicamps. Rather than the usual grind of practice, he instead held a massive Monday Fun Day. An event that held all sort of competitions from dodgeball to Saltine eating, water balloon tossing, and bat balancing. Among them also...
One thing that can never be underestimated is how valuable building a coaching staff can be. The Chicago Bears seemed to lose sight of that for a long time over the past decade. Thankfully head coach Matt Nagy learned his lesson from Andy Reid well. He understands it isn't about hiring friends. It...
Josh McCown falls into the category of one of those people who loved Jay Cutler. He insists to this day that the former Chicago Bears quarterback was misunderstood because of his unique personality and imperfect body language. He may not have handled the media well all the time, but that doesn't...
The Chicago Bears arguably have the most stable roster in the NFL right now. They went 12-4 last year and won the NFC North. This offseason they only lost two starters of the 22 they had in 2018. Neither of them is a core player. Adrian Amos and Bryce Callahan, while solid players, were not vital...
