Can the Bears Offense Compete?
Posted on 29 Oct 2012 by Smiley.
Can the Bears compete with any team in the NFL? I do believe so. But that all depends on an offense that has sputtered often times and needed a jump start provided by the defense. However, what if the defense has it's own problems to attend to and can't always bail the offense out? Then what Mike Tice? Let me be clear in the fact that I do not fully blame Mike Tice for the offenses' mishaps, ...

Showdown Alert: Panthers at Bears
Posted on 28 Oct 2012 by Smiley.

A tough series against the Dodgers puts the Cubs in a pickle trying to finish out this home stand with a decent record. Los Angeles took two of three from the Cubs over the weekend. Terrible starting pitching spelled doom for Chicago in this series that included a thrilling win on Saturday, overcoming blowing a five to one lead and an eight to five deficit, late.

Posted on 29 Oct 2010 by Mercedes Green.
After the Redskins ended the Lions’ losing streak last year, it’s time to put that stat to bed. The Redskins offense is looking to redeem itself after a messy showing last week against the Bears and their D is looking to keep their momentum up. By looking at numbers alone, the Redskins are rated lower than the Lions, but the Skins are #6 in the NFC at 4-3 and the Lions at #14 just a...
