Jay Cutler was only sacked once in his return to New Meadowlands Stadium. That was the high point of last night's game. more ›

We've been saying all along that the Bears' weakest link was their offensive line. We saw just how bad that line could be last night and why it's such a serious issue for this Bears team. Jay Cutler suffered nine (NINE!) sacks in the first half of the game before departing at halftime due to a concussion. Backup Todd Collins was also knocked out of the game, requiring the Bears to send in Caleb Hanie in the fourth quarter. That the Bears lost 17-3 and not by a larger margin is somewhat of a miracle, because they played just about the ugliest game we've ever seen. more ›

Well that should just about do it for any talk of the Bears making the playoffs. After leading for the first 53 minutes of the game, the Bears allowed the New York Giants to score two late touchdowns, resulting in 21-16 loss. The game began with a promising drive in which Rex Grossman drove the Bears down the field with ease, resulting in a touchdown and 7-0 lead just minutes into the game. But that... more ›

The Red Sox has permeated nearly every facet of Bostonist's lives. When they're not live-blogging the games, waxing poetic about the games, thanking Curt Schilling for his splendid work, or telling Dane Cook to watch his hair, they're watching certain presidential candidates hop on the Red Sox bandwagon (sorry, Gothamist). The Sox are so branded on the local brain that people are using the Series to spice up their sex lives. Speaking of spice, Bostonist... more ›

Chicagoist was amazed that, as quickly as the national sports media jumped on the Bears bandwagon, they leapt off even faster following the Bears' loss to Miami last week. Maybe they'll realize those leaps were premature after the Bears defeated the New York Giants 38-20 on national TV Sunday night. For the first 28 minutes of the game, it certainly didn't look like the Bears would win. The Giants dominated the game and held a... more ›

This game was a good bit closer than their previous two, and Chicagoist even feared for a while that they might actually lose, but the Bears won again on Sunday! In beating the Minnesota Vikings 19-16 in the Metrodome, the Bears won up there for the first time since 2001 and have started a season 3-0 for the first time since 1991. More importantly, this win gives the Bears a 3-0 record against the NFC... more ›

Having earned a first round playoff bye, the Chicago Bears probably spent Sunday the same way Chicagoist did -- on the couch watching a little football. While we were trying to recover from our Mexican vacation-induced football withdrawal, the Bears were watching to find out who they'd welcome to Soldier Field next weekend. more ›

Having given up on Jonathan Quinn and Jeff George, the Bears begin their auditions for a backup quarterback today with Kurt Warner's visit to Halas Hall. The former leage and Super Bowl MVP spent last season with the New York Giants, where he lost the starting job to rookie Eli Manning mid-season. Warner explained the other day, in Arizona: You always want to sign as a starter. I still believe I can be a starter... more ›

DOA for much of the first half, the Bears scored 20 quick points in part due to Giant turnovers on 3 consecutive offensive plays. The Bears scored a touchdown with 5:13 left in the second quarter to get their first points. Ike Hilliard fumbled on the next Giants possession and the Bears capitalized by scoring another TD 2 plays later. Kurt Warner threw an interception on the next Giants play, which turned into a field goal and then the exact same events occured on their next possession as well. With a field goal as time expired, the Bears went into halftime with a 20-14 lead! more ›
