Bears-Browns recap

With Lovie Smith’s future hanging in the balance, it did not surprise anyone when it was announced prior to the game that quarterback Jay Cutler would not take any snaps in the Bears’ preseason finale against the Cleveland Browns. Despite the struggles the offense has endured throughout the first three games of the preseason, risking [...]

Kenny Williams son makes 49ers roster

The San Francisco 49ers got down to 53 players today, and the son of White Sox general manager Kenny Williams has made the cut. Kyle Williams is vying to play receiver and handle some returns....

Afalava Among Players Cut By Bears

No one really expected safety Al Afalava to make the roster after his poor performance in the preseason. But the sixth round pick from last season made 53 tackles, two sacks and forced one fumble in 13 starts. Afalava showed he can make good plays at times, but most of the time he just wasn’t [...]

The Fine Line Between Brilliance and Stupidity in Fantasy Footbal...

Well kids…the time has come for the DeCon to take his rightful place behind the altar in the church for those of us who can’t just watch football, but need to play out fantasies of being an NFL General Manager by running their own teams in “fake life.”  Now I will submit to the congregation that I am sure there are many of us who could do this job in “real life” better than one Jerry Angelo…I mean cutting Al Afalava who started 13 games last year for Josh Bullocks who got beat like a drum repeat

The Turk Making Rounds at Halas Hall: Bears Roster Cuts Underway...

Happy Friday, Bears fans!  The Turk is wishing a happy early Labor Day weekend to some of the members of the Bears 75-man roster to get it down to the final 53 by Saturday.  Some of the bubble players we talked about the other day had their bubbles burst.  Here is the list of cuts as it stands now: Tim Shaw – special teams ace, who set a franchise record 30 special teams tackles, couldn’t show enough at linebacker to justify sticking around. Al Afalava – from hero to zero in one short year.  Afa

Neil Hayes: Last week, we presented 10 Bears players who have made the most out of training camp and preseason. With one day left before the roster is trimmed from 75 to 53 players, here's a look at 10 players who haven?t helped themselves, and, in some cases, might have lost their jobs:

Bears Den: September 3rd, 2010 Edition

Where "It's Just The Preseason" is now at an end.   Bears focus on big picture, not 0-4 mark - No. Focus on the preseason scores. Olsen is confident offense will excel - I love the blue and orange snowcone machine going on over at Halas Hall. Collins looks sharp in first Bears outing - He did, from what I understand. Chicago Bears: Little revealed in 13-10 loss to Cleveland Browns - Tony Little flashed everyone during the game. I dunno if you knew. 'O' a cause for optimism - There's lots of

Olsen is confident offense will excel

CLEVELAND – The Bears weren't exactly a juggernaut in the preseason, scoring only 46 points, the second fewest in the NFL. But tight end Greg Olsen isn't concerned as the regular-season looms.

Collins looks sharp in first Bears outing

CLEVELAND – Todd Collins may have solidified his role as the Bears' No. 2 quarterback with a strong debut performance in Thursday night's 13-10 preseason loss to the Cleveland Browns.

Bears focus on big picture, not preseason

CLEVELAND – The Bears concluded their first winless preseason since 1998 Thursday night with a 13-10 loss to the Cleveland Browns, but coaches and players aren't discouraged heading into the regular season.

'O' a cause for optimism

The Bears' offense -- overwhelmed by a complex system and rattled by a shaky preseason -- desperately needed some momentum heading into the Sept. 12 opener against the Detroit Lions. A Fortune 500 company might roll out the red carpet for Dr. Phil or Anthony Robbins. But the Bears' offense got the NFL equivalent: the Cleveland Browns' defense.

A sad cover story

CLEVELAND -- It's only the preseason. You can cross that excuse off the list now that an agonizing exhibition slate mercifully ended with the Bears' 13-10 loss at Cleveland Browns Stadium on Thursday night.

BEARS IN BRIEF: 'Comfortable' Collins steps right into backup...

CLEVELAND -- If nothing else, Todd Collins gave the Bears peace of mind Thursday night.

Bears Fall 13-10 to Browns, Wrap up Winless Preseason

The Chicago Bears put the finishing touches on a perfect preseason – perfectly awful.  After their 13-10 loss to the Cleveland Browns, the Bears dropped to 0-4 on the preseason and failed to win a single preseason game for the first time since 1998.  Ask anyone in the Bears’ locker room and they’ll tell you that it’s just practice and it doesn’t matter, but let’s face it – this team simply doesn’t pass the sniff test.  I am willing to throw the record out if I had seen something – ANYTHING – tha

Bears GM: Collins needed playing time

Asked about the decision to not play quarterback Jay Cutler at all in the final preseason game after he and the first-team offense failed to score in 21/2 quarters the week before, Bears general manager Jerry Angelo was diplomatic.
