The Ballad Of Dane Sanzenbacher And His Scrawny, White Friends
Pete Segall and our plucky friends at The Classical have a good story up today about Dane Sanzenbacher and the receiver's burden after one dropped pass in November: "It cannot be easy for Dane Sanzenbacher, and it's easy to imagine the hard thrumming pressure on him, the sensation of letting down th...
Brian Urlacher's Grudging Praise For Tebow: "He's A Good Running Back"
After the Bears blew a 10-0 lead in the final two-and-a-half minutes to fall to the almighty Tebow, Chicago LB Brian Urlacher was asked what he thought about the Denver QB: "He's a good running back, man," Urlacher told Brad Biggs of the Chicago Tribune. "He runs the ball well." High praise. [@BradB...
And Lo Did Tebow Come Bearing Gifts, An Interception For The Bears' Charles Tillman
Okay, so this was less a gift than a brilliant play by the Bears' Charles Tillman in both making the catch and keeping both feet inbounds. But it was Tim Tebow's first interception in six games, and that makes it at least a bit of a holiday miracle. [FOX]...

Brett Favre's Agent Is Not Answering The Phone At The Moment

In light of ESPN's exclusive that the Dongslinger "would listen" if the Bears reached out to him—even though they likely won't, according to the same report—I just called Favre's agent, Bus Cook.

Tony Romo and Jay Cutler are Winners, Philip Rivers Stinks: Your Sunday NFL Roundup

The Lions Had An Awful Lot Of Excuses About The Wind Yesterday
You could chalk the Lions' embarrassing loss to Chicago up to many things. Turnovers, an inability to get the run game going, Matthew Stafford...but no matter how many things don't go your way, it remains all-but-impossible for an NFL team to win when the wind itself is a Bears fan. Here, some selec...
A Brawl Broke Out In Chicago
If you were watching the game, you saw this coming somewhere around the end of the first quarter, but the bitterness between the Bears and Lions finally came to a boil when a frustrated Matthew Stafford threw Bears defensive back D.J.

Teams Should Probably Stop Punting To Devin Hester
The Detroit Lions brought in a new punter this week and apparently no one gave him the memo that Devin Hester is really good at returning punts. Robert Malone made the mistake of kicking it in Hester's vicinity and, well, you can see what happens from there....

Remembering The Best Punt Return That Never Officially Happened
Bears wide receiver/returner Devin Hester—as Drew explained Monday—is the human highlight reel that opponents have to kick to. He gave us a splendid return on Sunday night. But perhaps his best play of the season came on a play when he never touched the ball, on a play that never happened, as far ...
