Jay Cutler was the one who was most talked about this season for Chicago, especially in the playoffs. But one guy who is slightly overlooked is Matt Forte. Forte had slightly less touchdowns and yards than his first of three years in the league, but he greatly improved with carrying the ball. He averaged 4.5 [...]
I know its super early, and I’m a huge Bears homer, but here is my first 2011 NFL Mock Draft. Also check out the new 2011 NFL Mock Draft Database
1. Buffalo Bills: Andrew Luck, QB, Stanford
Bills have the worst quarterback situation in the league including Arizona. Their offensive line, receivers and [...]
The Bears picked up Jay Cutler from the Broncos last season in hopes that he would lead them to the top of the NFC North. Instead, Cutler underperformed throughout the season, throwing 26 interceptions. A team just cannot win when the quarterback throws that many picks during the course of the year.
Another player who didn't live up to expectations after a surprising rookie year was running back Matt Forte. After rushing for over 1,200 yards his rookie season, he couldn't reach 1,000 this past year. Star linebacker Brian Urlacher has had problems staying healthy as well.
All in all, the Bears are in for yet another mediocre season. I say they go 7-9 again in a top heavy division that features the Vikings and Packers. [...]
The NFC North is all about Brett Favre. If Favre plays this season for the Vikings, It will be a tough race between the Vikings and Packers. Do the Bears and Lions have a better team then last season? Maybe they will compete for a wild card spot... read on to find out. 3.
Chicago Bears: Last year the Bears thought they had a playoff team with the acquisition of
Jay Cutler. They were sorely disappointed when Cutler struggled all season long throwing interception after interception. Cutler finished the season with only one more touchdown then interceptions with 27 touchdowns and 26 interceptions. Cutler's interception rate goes up every season, if it goes up anymore, Cutler will probably be in the 30's. It is very hard to have a winning season when your quarterback throws 30+ interceptions. I think the Bears should focus on running the ball more this season because they have a great running back in Matt Forte. Cutler wasn't the only one to blame for the Bears misfortunes last season. The Bears do not have great receivers, Devin Hester has speed, but he can't catch. Earl Bennett has a promising future and may even be the top receiver on the team this season. The Bears tight end, Greg Olsen is one of the best in the league, he should be Cutlers main target unless he is double covered, which will probably happen a lot. The Bears defense is solid like usual led by Brian Urlacher. The Bears shouldn't have any trouble stopping their opponents from scoring unless Cutler keeps giving up the ball. Basically this team all depends on Cutler, if Cutler stops throwing interceptions, they will be a playoff team, but I don't see that happening. I think the Bears will have the same record as last season at [...]
Jay Cutler needs to cut down on his interceptions. [...]
