de la Puente was a starter with the Saints for a few years.  Ola has already started a couple of games this season and has held up.  Neither are bad.  Offensive line has not been the Bears Achilles this year.  They've actually held up pretty well given four starters have all missed multiple games.  Don't get me wrong, it's not a great line.  But Forte gets his yards (when they decide to hand it off to him) and Cutler has been sacked as many times as Rodgers.

For those interested, ESPN Sunday Countdown is doing a feature on the 25th anniversary of the Instant Replay game, on at approximately 12:40 ET.

No.

Dumber than the brain trust in Minnesota? 

Yep, Minnesota has been garbage for a long time (2009 being their lone moment in the sun), but the Bears had a system in place that was largely successful (not a Super Bowl team, but one that won more often than not) that was subsequently dismantled by Emery and Trestman. Both of those clowns probably deserve to be fired once the season is over, but I'm hoping that they're allowed to stick around.

Much like the former Lion regime that long outlived their expiration date.

I miss Jim Schwartz.

Matt Millen was a dystopian gift from the football gods.

TT just signed JAMON MEREDITH???!?

Take that, other teams! Bears are pretty much screwed, now.

His brother's name is Shine.

Sisters name is Pay

His gardener just goes by "H".

And he don't know sh!t.

Of course there's his dad's father.

Sh!t is his twin brother, and his mama is the only one who can tell the two apart.

Simply an awesome article.

I suggest everyone reads it as they ready themselves for the game!
