Bears' offense fails to impress in 10-3 victory
It took the Bears just more than a week of training camp to name the starting offensive line.

Wait, J'Marcus Webb said what?
First-and-long:
It’s hard to know which is worse: J’Marcus Webb playing left tackle during the Bears’ exhibition opener against Buffalo on Saturday night or J’Marcus Webb talking about it later.
Webb lined up at the most...Tags: Sports, Devin Hester, Jay Cutler, Jerome Bettis, Chicago Bears

Anytime Martz wants to help Bears blockers get better, fine by me
Bears interim offensive coordinator Mike Martz said Jay Cutler will play more against the Giants on Monday night than he did in last week’s exhibition opener, blocking permitting.

Fantasy Fodder season preview: Ranking fantasy wide receivers
Let's jump in the time machine and flash back in time to the early 2000s when Tom Cruise wasn't a known crazy person, "Freedom Fries" were an innovation in redneck culinary circles and men under the age of 40 wearing visors in public was considered to...Tags: Tom Cruise, Kansas City Chiefs, Baltimore Ravens, Houston Texans, Percy Harvin

Fantasy Fodder season preview: Ranking fantasy tight ends
There are very few slam-dunk picks in fantasy football. For years, owning LaDainian Tomlinson guaranteed you a spot in the playoffs.

Fantasy Fodder season preview: Ranking kickers and defenses

Big mouth, little production -- WIlliams just doesn't get it
