Last year I stacked these two playmakers up, and Bernard Berrian's stats were much better, but it seems like Devin Hester has really improved. Lets take a look. Bernard Berrian: Minnesota Vikings 48th in receptions (55) 61st in receiving yards (618 yards) 122nd in longest reception (40 yards) Tied for 53rd in receiving touchdowns (four) Third highest cap value for a receiver Fourth highest total salary WR   Devin Hester: Chicago Bears 42nd ...

Brian Urlacher-Gale Sayers Feud Is Silly

Posted: 22nd May 2010 by Jake Perper in NFL
Brian Urlacher is an NFL veteran, so you would think he would know better than to pick a fight with a Hall of Famer like Gale Sayers. Especially since Gale Sayers was such a great player for Urlacher’s team, the Chicago Bears, way before Urlacher was even born. The whole feud is silly because Gale Sayers was speaking at a banquet when a fan asked him his thoughts on the ...

Was Trading LB Jamar Williams A Mistake For the Chicago Bears?

Posted: 28th April 2010 by Jake Perper in NFL
The Chicago Bears had the best depth at linebacker in the NFL with Lance Briggs, Brian Urlacher, Pisa Tinoisamoa, Hunter Hillenmeyer, Nick Roach, Jamar Williams and Tim Shaw, but not anymore. Jamar Williams was traded yesterday to Carolina for SS Chris Harris, who will be back for his second stint in the windy city. The Bears still have backups in Hillenmeyer and Roach ...

Releasing TE Desmond Clark Would Be A Mistake

Posted: 14th April 2010 by Jake Perper in NFL
Desmond Clark has spent the last seven seasons with the Bears, appearing in 105 games, catching 241 passes for 2627 yards and 18 touchdowns. Clark came to the Bears in 2003 after spending his first three seasons in Denver and a brief one-year stint with the Dolphins. Clark, who turns 33 in six days has been a very good player for the Bears. He played through injuries last season, ...
The Bears brought Pisa Tinoisamoa into the mix last season thinking he would fit in great with Brian Urlacher and Lance Briggs. He never really got the chance to fit in because in week one he suffered a knee injury, that happened to be the same game that Brian Urlacher broke his wrist. Tinoisamoa tried to come back in week six, but he re-aggravated his ...

Former Bear Alex Brown Signs With The New Orleans Saints

Posted: 7th April 2010 by Jake Perper in NFL
Alex Brown has latched on to a team rather quickly. Dumped by the Bears last Thursday, Brown was scheduled to visit New Orleans today, then head to Tampa Bay on Thursday, but the Saints have signed him to a two-year deal. He will be playing for the defending super bowl champs. If you remember, the Bears played the Saints to get to Super Bowl XLI and Brown was ...

Why The Chicago Bears Should Sign QB Marc Bulger

Posted: 5th April 2010 by Jake Perper in NFL
The Bears have Jay Cutler as their franchise quarterback, but if he goes down with an injury, they do not have much experience behind him. Caleb Hanie, an undrafted free agent from Colorado State (two-year pro) and Brett Basanez, an undrafted free agent from Northwestern (four-year pro) aren’t much help. Bulger, 33, was released by the Rams today but still has some years left in him. He sat behind ...

Big Mistake: DE Alex Brown Released by the Bears

Posted: 1st April 2010 by Jake Perper in NFL
We all saw it coming, but we didn’t really believe that Jerry Angelo and company would dump there most consistent defensive player the Bears had. Defensive end Alex Brown, 30, is an eight year veteran who has spent all of his NFL career with the Bears. He was making $5 million a season and the Bears couldn’t afford to keep him. He only had two years left on his ...

Chicago Bears Release Veteran Corner Nathan Vasher

Posted: 17th March 2010 by Jake Perper in NFL
Nathan Vasher, a former shutdown cornerback in the NFL, was released today by the Chicago Bears. In 2005, Vasher he was nicknamed the “interceptor” because of his eight interceptions the season. However, ever since that year, Vasher, a fourth-round pick in 2004 out of Texas, has struggled to stay healthy. In the four seasons following 2005, he has appeared in 41 games, making 89 tackles and ...
