Competition ferocious for top quarterbacks
Tribune pro football reporterUniversity of Florida quarterback Rex Grossman will be watching the April 26 NFL draft in Chicago with his sister, Ashley Fox, who lives in town. If the Bears pick him, he said, "That'd be nice to just drive over." Until the NFL scouting combine...Tags: Sports, Colleges and Universities, Rex Grossman, Football, Chicago Bears

Humbling lesson in reality
Tribune staff reporterSo much for keeping up with the big boys. So much for playoff hopes dangling by a mathematical thread. Beating the Detroit Lions, as it turns out, doesn't mean much when you're playing a real playoff team. And easy schedule, easy conference or not,...Tags: Sports, James Williams, Marcus Robinson, Football, Chicago Bears

No nod for Matthews
Tribune staff reporterAfter a 2-2 exhibition season, three lowly opponents and a 35-24 loss in the wrap-up Saturday night, the Bears figure they have at least one trump card to throw at Kansas City in the season opener two weeks from Sunday. They refuse to name their starting...Tags: Curtis Conway, Sports, Marcus Robinson, Football, Chicago Bears

Interceptions, drops deluge soggy Bears
Tribune staff reporterA typically sloppy preseason game? Or a game typical of what will be a sloppy team? You make the call. Actually, the replay official did in reversing a safety after Pittsburgh's block of a Todd Sauerbrun punt and calling it a touchdown to give the...Tags: Sports, Todd Sauerbrun, Marcus Robinson, Deshea Townsend, Football

Inconsistent McNown successful in the end
Tribune staff reporterBased on the most significant playing time of his fledgling pro career, Cade McNown's rookie season will be nothing if not suspenseful. And the Bears are sure to follow. Youthful 3-yard touchdown run. Two rookie interceptions. Dramatic 20-yard touchdown...Tags: Sports, Todd Lyght, Fabien Bownes, Football, Soldier Field

McNown gets positive review from his coach
Tribune staff reporterHe received his "Welcome-to-the-NFL, son" four plays into his pro career, a Colts sandwich that left Cade McNown picking himself up 9 yards behind the line of scrimmage and surely knowing what they meant when they warned him about the speed of pro...Tags: Sports, Todd Sauerbrun, Marcus Robinson, Peyton Manning, Football

Banged up? Bang-up job
Tribune staff reporterThey are 3-2 and kings of the universe. A real team with serious goals, an agenda and an attitude. They are one victory short of their season total for each of the last two seasons, but you'd never know it. Never guess that this was the same team that...Tags: Marcus Robinson, Clyde Simmons, Football, Chicago Bears, Hospitals and Clinics

McNown hook creates 3-way QB controversy
Tribune staff reporterThis is not the quarterback controversy anyone had in mind, but the Bears just backed themselves into a three-way debate involving youth, experience and a guy in street clothes who nurses a sore hamstring and is looking better and better all the time....Tags: Sports, Clyde Simmons, James Williams, Todd Sauerbrun, Football

2-minute drillers
Tribune staff reporterYou could hardly blame them. It's pouring rain. Their team hadn't shown the ability to move the ball without turning it over, much less score. From the opposing sideline, Mike Ditka, for crying out loud, was glowering at his team to close it out. None of...Tags: Sports, Todd Sauerbrun, James Williams, Eddie Kennison, Football

Bears left in the cold
Tribune staff reporterIt was a miserable Sunday at Soldier Field. Penetrating cold, gusting winds, pelting rain turning to sleet. The kind of day that makes football teams look bad. Only in this case, while the Bears were huddled against the elements, slipping, bobbling and...Tags: Sports, Todd Sauerbrun, Dorsey Levens, Football, Soldier Field

No gain, just pain for Bears
Tribune staff reporterJim Flanigan's jaw was clenched so tightly, his teeth threatened to shatter under the pressure, and you wonder how much a six-year Bears veteran can take. You wonder how many more of these any of them can absorb and dissect and move past when every week,...Tags: Sports, Marcus Robinson, Clyde Simmons, Football, Soldier Field

Believe it, even if Chiefs can't
Tribune staff reporterYes, those were your Chicago Bears at Soldier Field on Sunday. Essentially the same guys in the same uniforms you saw taking a knee at the two-minute warnings and running their tailbacks off left guard on third-and-11. The same franchise that has drummed...Tags: Sports, Football, Soldier Field, Chicago Bears, Shane Matthews
