Meanwhile, Jay Cutler and Marc Trestman both take the blame for an interception.
There's no doubt rookie Kyle Long belongs on the field for the Chicago Bears.
Jay Cutler looked shaky again and the defense made up for it, harassing Philip Rivers early on and setting the tone for the Chicago Bears in a 33-28 victory over the San Diego Chargers in a preseason game on Thursday night.
The second preseason game is upon on us, which means the starters are starting to matter a little more.
As he does every year, Deadpin's Drew Magary explains why each NFL team sucks.
Every year there is that one player who shines late in the first preseason game and gets the fan base all excited.
The Bears forced three first-half turnovers and linebacker Jonathan Bostic returned an interception 51 yards for a touchdown, but the Carolina Panthers spoiled Marc Trestman's NFL head coaching debut by beating Chicago 24-17 Friday night.
Jay Cutler had success while enjoying freedom in the offense.

When Jay Cutler dropped back on the second play of a two-minute drill Monday and threw a 30-yard dart to the end zone, most would have expected to see Brandon Marshall or Alshon Jeffery pulling the ball into their arms for the touchdown.
Shut up until the offseason. Pretty simple. And probably a pretty good idea.

The Martellus Bennett Show didn't stop after practice ended.
The Bears took the field Friday morning at Olivet Nazarene University for their first practice of training camp. Here are some quick observations from what we saw:
