Bears execute winning formula, now must repeat it - Rich Campbell: Offensive efficiency plus D-line disruption equals victory. That's how their roster is built. That's how they allocated their salary-cap space. That's their map to the postseason.
Too soon for Bears to give up on Briggs - David Haugh: The fill-in LBs did once what Lance Briggs has done consistently for 12 seasons. At this stage of his career, he brings more value than what shows up on videotape or the stat sheet.
10 thoughts on the Bears - Mark Potash: Could this be a turning point for Mel Tucker after he masterminded a defensive effort even Lovie Smith himself would have been challenged to pull off? Plus: Jordan Mills, Matt Forte, Chris Conte, and more.

This was my favourite in-game chill-out song to listen to while performing acts of carnage cruising the streets of Liberty City in a law-abiding manner. I hadn't realised Kyle MacLachlan and Michael Madsen voiced parts in the game.
