Bears' forecast suddenly cloudy
There was bright sunshine at Soldier Field on Sunday, as much as we've seen at any game this year. It was considerably darker in the bowels of the stadium in the back room where injured players are laid on tables and poked and prodded, tested, X-rayed...

McClellin ranks near middle of class
With the 15th pick of the NFL draft in April, the Seahawks chose defensive end Bruce Irvin. Four picks later, the Bears chose defensive end Shea McClellin. If the Bears had picked 15th and the Seahawks 19th, it's possible Irvin would be a Bear and...
