The Chicago Bears announced on Tuesday that they placed kicker Robbie Gould on the injured reserve with a season-ending calf injury. Gould suffered the calf inury during pregame warmups against the Vikings on Sunday. Olindo Mare was signed on to replace Gould after beating out Billy Cundiff and Neil Rackers in a tryout at Halas [...]
The Chicago Bears couldn’t afford a slip up on Sunday in what was considered a very winnable game against the Carolina Panthers. But what seemed to be an easy game on paper turned out to be a dogfight for the Bears in the end. It was nice to see quarterback Jay Cutler put his team [...]
Total yards (416 to 210), time of possession (36 to 23) and third down conversions, (nine to two). Those numbers indicate how badly the Carolina Panthers outplayed the Chicago Bears on Sunday at Soldier Field. But the two final numbers that mattered were 23-22, which was the final score in favor of the Bears. The Bears know [...]
Last Thursday night’s loss to the Denver Broncos had Bears fans panicking over its stagnant offense while Saturday night’s 33-31 victory over the Washington Redskins gave fans its first glimpse of its new potent offense. A week after sitting out the opener, Jay Cutler wasted no time getting reacquainted with his old pal Brandon Marshall, [...]

Did you know that the Bears last three victories have all come from the leg of kicker Robbie Gould. Gould kicked a 35 yard field goal in a 27-24 victory over the New Orleans Saints last year on December 11th, then kicked a 38 yard field goal in overtime to beat the Green Bay Packers [...]
The Bears stunned the Pittsburgh Steelers tonight. They watched Steelers kicker Jeff Reed miss two huge field goals. Robbie Gould was clutch again with his game winning 44 yard field goal with 20 seconds left. Players like Johnny Knox, Kellen Davis, Greg Olsen, and Devin Hester all stepped up on offense. Hunter Hillenmeyer, Lance Briggs, [...]
My first Soldier Field experience turned out to be a success. Not only was it the coldest (-2) Bears game in history at kickoff, but they also defeated their most hated rival the Green Bay Packers 20-17. The Bears were trailing 14-3 at half to the 5-9 Packers and basically did nothing offensively. They adjusted [...]
