There are some intriguing games on the slate and here's how I think it will all play out.
Football fans, rejoice, the NFL is back! Week 1 features a few intriguing divisional matchups, as well as a heavyweight bout between two elite NFC teams. Here's my take on how all of this weekend's action will shake out.
There are several teams this season that have a legitimate chance to overcome poor finishes in recent seasons and become legitimate NFL surprises.
The Jeff Otah era is over in Carolina.
Here's my take on how the NFL's Week 15 will shake out with my predictions, my juggernaut game of the week, and my "juggernot lame of the weak".
Here's my take on how the NFL's Week 14 will shake out with my predictions, my juggernaut game of the week, and my "juggernot lame of the weak."
Here's my take on how the NFL's Week 11 will shake out with my predictions, my juggernaut games of the week, and my "juggernot lames of the weak."
Christian Ponder took only two starts to get his first career win, outdueling the more-heralded Cam Newton in the process.
This is my favorite week in the NFL season, as it's the only time I can assure you the Bears won't lose. Even though the Bears are on a bye, there are thirteen games to be played.
While most of our focus is on the Bears and Vikings "3rd Place in the NFC North" bowl on Sunday night, there will be twelve other games played this weekend.
When one of the most respected coaches in NFL history releases a 27-year-old, two-time Pro Bowler that he used a first-round draft pick on in 2007, there must be something the rest of the league isn't seeing.
Bears cornerback Charles "Peanut" Tillman has been fined $7,500 for grabbing the face mask of a Carolina Panthers receiver in the game last week, according to a published report.
According to a report from the Chicago Tribune, Bears safety Brandon Meriweather was fined $20,000 by the league for a helmet-to-helmet hit on the Panther's Steve Smith in Sunday's win.
During the Bears' 34-29 victory on Sunday, the offense wasted two timeouts on one drive in the second half -- former quarterback Jim Miller breaks it down.
A source close to the situation told 670 The Score's Adam Hoge that Bears quarterback Jay Cutler flew to Los Angeles to see Kristin Cavallari after the Bears win over the Panthers on Sunday.
Should Devin Hester really be considered a legitimate Hall of Fame candidate? One Hall of Fame quarterback seems to think so.
In Sunday's 34-29 win over the Panthers, that's exactly what they did. The Bears put together an explosive running attack that featured 222 yards and two touchdowns between Matt Forte and Marion Barber.
Bears Coach Lovie Smith said Monday morning that the team's offense did a "super job" in beating the Carolina Panthers 34-29, but the defense gave up far too many yards.
Despite the Bears' offense showing signs of life on the ground in Sunday's 34-29 win over the Panthers, it would be a stretch to say all 11 men on that side of the ball were clicking.
Devin Hester set an NFL record with his 11th punt return for a touchdown, Forte ran for a career-high 205 yards and the Bears beat Cam Newton and the Carolina Panthers 34-29 on Sunday.
It's a must-win for the Bears this weekend, and I think the Panthers will put up more of a fight than people expect.
It's only Week 4, but don't get it twisted, this is a big game for the Bears. You don't want to have a three-game losing streak and you don't want to lose an NFC game at home.
The Week 4 match-up between the Bears and Carolina is personal according to Panthers' head coach Ron Rivera.
Reports indicated there was a clash between Rivera and head coach Lovie Smith after the Bears Superbowl run in 2006. The two will meet again as the Panthers travel to Chicago on Sunday in a battle between two 1-2 teams.
Yes, it is Bears-Packers week, but believe it or not there are 15 other games to be played this weekend. Here's my take on how the NFL's Week 3 will shake out with my predictions, my juggernaut games of the week, and my "juggernot lames of the weak":
