Chicago Bears Position Battles: OL

The Bears had their offensive line set before last nights game. The guys playing the line can play themselves out of a job through some penalties or missed assignments, but it's so hard to make a big final impression and come on strong to make a team when playing in the offensive trenches. Last night they didn't learn anything about their group that they didn't already know.
The starting five will be the same starting five. They'll try and sneak the same guys through to the practice squad, and they'll cut the guys they were planning on cutting.
Chicago Bears Position Battles: DB

The secondary has been a concern for the Bears for some time now. If us Bears fans aren't complaining about the talent on the field we're complaining about the scheme the Bears run. Charles Tillman and Danieal Manning are the most griped about members of the defensive backfield, and of late, Chris Harris has his share of critics.
Scheme wise, the cushion the corners give is an oft discussed topic, as is the failure for the safetys to recognize the plays and react sooner taking away the void in the dreaded Tampa 2. The DBs have their issues, but it's not all doom and gloom. There are some potential bright spots in the group, and some of the additions the Bears made in 2010 could help them get back to running their D effectively.

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 potential. I'd say there's one point twenty one jigawatts of potential.

30 minutes of football down, 30 more minutes until this preseason is drawn to a close. The roster cuts that will happen in the next 48 hours are a bit more clear, and we are that much closer to real football. The question is: Will we be ready for real football? Enjoy the 2nd Half!! |

While the majority of starters will be watching from the sidelines, tonight's final preseason game will be one last chance for backups and reserves to make an impression. Lovie Smith has said that the final 53-man roster is pretty much already set, but there still may be a couple of surprises in the next 48 hours. Thanks again to Chris Pokorney from Dawgs By Nature for giving us some insight into the Browns world earlier today. It's preseason game #4... let's get it on! |

Preseason Game 4 Preview: Chicago Bears at Cleveland Browns

The final preseason game of 2010 is actually very important for the Chicago Bears. The game is very important for those on the back end of the roster. We know that Jay Cutler will not play. We know that Todd Collins will start, and since we haven't seen him yet, he'll play a lot. Caleb Hanie will also sit this one out. For a comprehensive breakdown of the rest of the roster, go here.
Game is at 7pm CT on FOX.
WCG Key Match-Up Post:Bears Bubble Players vs.Browns

Since the Bears starters most likely won't play, this match-up post will focus on 2nd and 3rd string players and what they need to do to earn a spot on the 53 or PS with the Bears or another club (Check out Mike Mueller blog on 53-man roster odds). For example, a guy like Juaquin Iglesias would need this game to ensure a spot on the 53-man roster. Todd Collins can become the #2 QB with a strong showing, and Jarron Gilbert needs a really good performance to make the coaches think about keeping him around. These are just 3 of many players on the team that will be fighting for either a spot on the roster or a bump up the depth chart.
