Chicago Bears Monthly Look-Ahead

15 September, 2011 (11:45) | Chicago Bears, NFL | By: Stormin' Norman Disciple

By Steven Suarez
Jay Cutler and the Bears opened the new NFL picks season with an emphatic win over the Atlanta Falcons. They’ll look to keep the good times rolling over the next few weeks even though some powerhouses stand in their way.
Chicago fans could not have asked for much more from their team in Week [...]

Bears Fans Need To Be Patient [As Usual]

26 August, 2010 (08:08) | Chicago Bears | By: Brian

Anyone who is in favor of an 18-game regular season schedule (with just two preseason games) cannot be a Bears fan. After watching the first half of this past weekend’s game, I feel like we should reverse the salaries of Patrick Mannelly ($850,200) and Chris Williams ($5,955,200) and move Mike Tice to the offensive line [...]

Chicago Bears: Who Has the Best Fantasy Value in 2010?

20 August, 2010 (07:09) | Chicago Bears, Fantasy Football | By: Brian

What Chicago Bears player has the most draft value? Well Chicago has a quarterback in a new system with a line many people doubt. The Bears have an interesting running back platoon with Matt Forte and Chester Taylor, but you can only draft a single back at a time. The wide receivers have yet to [...]

The Chicago Bears Coaching Staff Living in Neverland

12 August, 2010 (22:09) | Chicago Bears | By: Brian

So, while I am happy to have a distraction from the Cubs dreadful summer and the White Sox oh so painfully losing control of the AL Central to the second-half king Minnesota Twins, I am not excited to here the overarching strategy coming out of the Chicago Bears camp.
Perhaps the scariest plan is to try [...]

Julius Peppers Shows Bears Fans How Rich People Get Drunk

8 March, 2010 (06:24) | Chicago Bears | By: Stormin' Norman Disciple

Isn’t it great when a new acquisition on one of the local sports teams likes to go out downtown and make himself accessible and visible to his fan base?  I don’t mean getting drunk and getting in trouble (Lance Briggs comes to mind, but there are many others).  I’m just talking about grabbing a few [...]

Chicago Bears Stage Free Agency Coup

5 March, 2010 (17:01) | Chicago Bears | By: Stormin' Norman Disciple

This is the Bears biggest offseason ever in terms of free agency.  It all essentially happened in one day.  Here is a breakdown of exactly what occurred and how it could impact the Bears.  I’m not purely drinking kool-aid today, but as a Bears fan its hard not to.
“The Catch” — Julius Peppers
Wow.  This was [...]

Hopefully The Chicago Liamthers Can Be Better Than The Sum of Their Parts

10 February, 2010 (07:00) | Chicago Bears | By: Stormin' Norman Disciple

What 3 teams have been essentially the most ineffective teams in the NFL the last few years?  If you guessed Lions, Rams, and Panthers, you would be correct.  I’m not sure why that fact is appealing to the Bears front office, but they have essentially signed 19 players since 2004 that played for one of [...]

Mike Martz Brings High-Powered Gameplan to Low-Powered Offense

2 February, 2010 (10:30) | Chicago Bears | By: Stormin' Norman Disciple

The greatest show on grass?  I highly doubt it.  But apparently that’s what the Bears think Mike Martz can bring to the table.  And when I say that the Bears think he brings that to the table, what I really mean is that the other 17 crappy candidates they interviewed turned them down.  What is [...]

The Tragedy of the Bears Coaching Staff Search

28 January, 2010 (13:01) | Chicago Bears, Things That Piss Me Off | By: JavierSandooski

How would I describe the Bears’ search to fill the vacancies for Offensive and Defensive Coordinators?  Laughable.  Tragedy.  A joke.  Disaster.  You get the idea.  This has turned into a complete debacle – I really don’t think people understand the full extent of it.  For months, everyone knew that Ron “I don’t know how to [...]

Bears Website Insensitivity Makes You Cringe (Fun With Advertising)

22 January, 2010 (07:00) | Chicago Bears | By: Stormin' Norman Disciple

Thanks to NQTC reader Dominic for catching this little mishap.  I have no doubt in my mind that this was an accident, NQTC ads run all the time and I don’t entirely know what is going to pop up on them.  However…doesn’t this kind of thing make you uncomfortable?  I mean its funny, sure, but [...]

Chicago Bears of Old Remind Us How Much Current Bears Suck

19 January, 2010 (07:00) | Chicago Bears | By: Stormin' Norman Disciple

Sure, the Bears this year sucked on the field, but you know where else they sucked?  Off of it.  Sure Cutler goes out downtown with his buddy Greg Olsen on Saturday nights and they have a few drinks, but where’s the character?  It’s nothing like that old Bears team of 1985.  Where’s Coach Ditka smoking [...]

Chicago Bear Gaines Adams Dies

17 January, 2010 (10:57) | Chicago Bears | By: Stormin' Norman Disciple

The news is very preliminary at this point, but Bears newly acquired defensive end Gaines Adams has been pronounced dead at a hospital in South Carolina:
The 26-year-old was reportedly taken to the emergency room at Self Regional Healthcare in Greenwood County where he died, County Coroner James T. Coursey told the Greenville News.
While many were [...]

Lovie Should Consider Tennessee Job

14 January, 2010 (11:21) | Chicago Bears | By: Stormin' Norman Disciple

There is one thing that the Tennessee football program and Lovie Smith have in common right now: they are both under fire.  With Lane Kiffin jumping ship to head to USC and all the insanity that has swirled around him and the Vols program over the last 14 months, it should come as no surprise [...]

Jim McMahon Calls Bears Ownership Idiots [And We Agree]

8 January, 2010 (07:30) | Chicago Bears | By: Stormin' Norman Disciple

The Bears sucked this year.  I mean they really sucked this year.  But the problems with personnel, execution, coaching, and conditioning are not the only things that are wrong.  The Chicago Bears as an organization is owned by the McCaskey family.  Now don’t get me wrong, we honor the great Papa Bear Halas by keeping [...]

Vintage Ditka Gives Angry Interview in His Underwear

6 January, 2010 (16:44) | Chicago Bears | By: Stormin' Norman Disciple

With all the coaching issues surrounding the Bears right now, it seems an appropriate time to look back on Da Coach.  Lovie seems like a great human being, regardless of how good a coach he is, but he can never do an entertaining interview like this.  The fact that he is in his underwear is [...]
