Bears sign Santonio Holmes
That is crazy if true, an hour after inking a deal, he is out practicing. Nice to see that he has some explosiveness too.

Bears sign Santonio Holmes
Seems like a great signing. He is only 30 and played with horrible QB's since leaving Pittsburgh, so it is no wonder his numbers dropped.

Brandon Marshall
That is a 2 hour flight, not a big deal.

Preseason Game #2 Open Thread
McManis and Washington stood out on the defense, Draughn had some nice runs on offense, and O'Donnell looks to have the punting wrapped up. Carey had 1x 15 yard run and was 12-21 otherwise, which is brutal. Weems is worthless and there are still concerns about the LB's. I heard on the radio that teams will just run more base packages with RB and FB or 2 TE to keep SMC on the field vs Fuller. Which makes sense from a strategy standpoint.

One Positive so far
Wow did Weems look bad, I would take my chances with touchbacks every time than chancing a turnover that deep in our zone. Weems not only failed on ST, he didn't do anything on offense either. Washington really stood out, he seemed faster than everyone and was making some great plays.

Zach Miller Injured Reserve
Yeah, this sucks. We were about to have a formidable pair of TE's and this happens. This guy can't catch a break. Either he has bad genes, luck, or roided at some point.

If the Jags offensive line was any good, we would be down 21-0.

The entire defense looks like crap. I am sick of the scheme already, too many holes. Henne looks like a Pro Bowler, and we can't even get a first down on offense. Surprised by the start.

Yeah, Joe D is definitely on the chopping block. Tucker is #2 in the chute if the defense doesn't turn it around this year.

Bennett is Reinstated
Glad to see the warm welcome.

They said it was meant to be a back shoulder throw: http://www.chicagobears.com/news/article-1...ce-f4a4aade47ce

From last night
Miller also made a nice catch and run with Palmer. He caught it near the sidelines for a few yards, then made 2 good moves to avoid defenders and got 15+ out of it. Literally made something out of nothing. I was thoroughly impressed with him all night long.

All subs in now, Palmer looks really bad at QB. Sanchez looks like a Pro Bowler. SMC with a weak attempt at tackling on a long run.

Zach Miller still in at TE, makes a great catch and a few moves for a nice gain. Very impressed with him so far at TE.

Beasr #2 D vs Eagles #2 O, 3 and out, punt.

Tress Way with first punt, a 38 yarder. Hard to see him winning the job with that type of punt.

Just as I thought the defense was showing some holes, McManis gets a pick.

We've had 2x Kickoffs and great coverage on both.

Wow, Cutler with a laser through double coverage to Zach Miller for a TD. Cutler 9/13 for 85 yards and a TD, 112.7 QB Rating. Probably done for the night.

Cutler trying to go to Weems twice, both times it looked like Cutler thought he was 6'4". Then a nice touch pass to Rosario over the middle.

Jeffery with a 40+ yard gain negated by offsetting penalties. Then Marshall with a highlight reel one handed catch for a 1st Down.

Preseason Game #1 Open Thread
After 2 drives by Philly, which has a pretty good offense, our defense has totally impressed me. The D-Line is in the pocket on almost every play. Young is really noticeable and the DT's playing solid. The LB's and DB's seem to be in position with no obvious missed assignments.

Preseason Game #1 Open Thread
First drive on defense. At first we looked a little confused, players were running all over. Then after a timeout, we looked like a different defense. Ratliff and Paea kept getting pressure and Mundy got an INT. First drive on offense. I don't know if it was because we had the ball in the Philly 30 or what, but we looked like crap. 3 and out and we miss a 41 yard FG. Horrible start. 2nd drive on defense. Eagles getting a lot of penalties due to our D-Line pressure so far.

Great article on Trestman about the suspension of Bennett
I've heard him compared to Phil Jackson, which is a good thing. I heard Jackson was a pretty good coach.
