Everybody knows that Jay Cutler didn't exactly have a lot of friends across the NFL. Sure there were people who liked him, but there were far more who didn't. They thought he was offputting and cocky. He had a mouth on him too. That made it easy for him to accumulate some enemies over his long...
The Roquan Smith issue continues to drag on for the Chicago Bears. It's the lone distraction for a team that's otherwise managed to avoid them this offseason. Matt Nagy is settling in as head coach. Mitch Trubisky is getting to know his new offense. There haven't been any significant injuries so...
The Chicago Bears are focused on their own business and that's the way it needs to be. Never mind winning seasons. They haven't even won seven games since 2013. Fans have suffered for a long time. Some could argue this has been the darkest period in team history. They need every hand on deck to...
Believe it or not, there was a point in time where few people knew who Brian Urlacher was. That included many of his teammates. In 2000, he was just a former safety out of the University of New Mexico the Chicago Bears had taken #9 overall in the draft. Experts insisted he was a freak athlete with...
NFL coaches know that it's important they be like parents to children when they run a team. One of the golden rules of good parenting is to never play favorites with one child or another. They all must be loved or disciplined equally to maintain an air of fairness. Yet former head coach Marty...
One thing about John Fox was he never cared much for media relations and the like. He always kept it at arm's length, showing a general apathy. That's why the only time one heard him speak was in the locker room after a win. He resisted every opportunity to get himself in front of the cameras for...
Only two players from the 2018 NFL draft remained unsigned by Monday, July 30th. That changed when the New York Jets successfully reached an agreement with quarterback and #3 pick Sam Darnold, who has finally reported to camp. This leaves Chicago Bears #8 pick Roquan Smith as the lone holdout. This...
Everybody knows that the Hall of Fame game is a glorified scrimmage. Since it's essentially a fifth preseason contest for the two teams involved, it's not going to feature any starters playing. Nobody would risk injuries in something like that. Even so, it's the first actual football being played...
It's no shock that most experts aren't jumping on the Mitch Trubisky bandwagon. Contrary to popular myth, none of them were doing so for Jared Goff at this time last year either. They were cautiously optimistic that maybe, just maybe Sean McVay could turn him into a serviceable quarterback. Then...
Back in the spring when the Chicago Bears selected Roquan Smith #8 overall, all eyes immediately turned to Nick Kwiatkoski. The third-year linebacker was expected to take over as a starter when Jerrell Freeman was cut and Christian Jones left for free agency. It made sense. He had starting...
Roquan Smith is a talented player. There's no question about that. He didn't get to be the #8 overall pick by accident. The Chicago Bears see a bright future in him. With that said, there are consequences to every decision you make in life. While Smith has allowed his agents to play hardball with...
Chicago Bears fans are growing frustrated with first round pick Roquan Smith. It's been over a week since training camp began for the team down in Bourbonnais. During that time the young linebacker has been sitting at home while his agents and the Bears front office continue to sit in a deadlock...
