The Bears face the possibility of having another starting linebacker sidelined with a significant injury.

To put in perspective on how bad the Bears played, the Bears ran 12 plays in the second half this afternoon and gained 2 yards compared to the Vikingsa 225 second half yards.

After starting nine games at cornerback last season, Corey Graham expected to compete for a starting role this year.

Ask the Bears what is realistic for them with six games to play in their season, they tell you all of their goals remain in play.

The Bears were going to let their play speak for themselves after turning down NBC for pregame interviews last week.

The defense gave the Bears a chance. The special teams gave the Bears a chance. Jay Cutler gave the Bears no chance.

Even though he wasn?t injured, Josh Beekman finished Thursday night's Bears game on the sideline.

The Bears are at their best when they win the turnover ratio, which might be a difficult task come Sunday night.

I gave up "The Office" and "30 Rock" for that? I mean, Michael Scott and Liz Lemon coulda ve executed better than Jay Cutler and Devin Hester.

So it has come to this: We're in mid-November, and the Bears are talking about running the table.

Much of this Bears mess is on Jerry Angelo-the Hester-Bennett-Knox-Davis receiving corps; Frank Omiyale and Orlando Pace on the left side of the offensive line; Zack Bowman and Josh Bullocks starting at safety.

Jay Cutler's confidence could be shaken after a five-interception performance that has left the Bears reeling after a 10-6 loss to the 49ers.

San Francisco 49ers running back Frank Gore scores a touchdown against the Chicago Bears in the second quarter of an NFL football game in San Francisco, Thursday, Nov.

After last week's debacle against the Cardinals, the defense had to step it up against the 49ers.

Bears general manager Jerry Angelo is confident defensive tackle Tommie Harris has learned his lesson from Sunday's ejection.

The 49ers won't have LB Takeo Spikes for the rest of the game, and Bears TE Desmond Clark also won't return, reports NFL Network's Jason La Canfora.

Frank Gore ran for 104 yards and a touchdown, as San Francisco recorded five interceptions in a 10-6 win over the Chicago Bears at Candlestick Park.

Tillman and Afalava were both hurt in the second quarter and did not return. The Cardinals were already en route to their fourth straight TD and a 28-7 lead when the Bears suffered the injuries, so it was hard to blame them for the loss.

One of the inexorable underlying qualities about coach Lovie Smith's Chicago Bears has been a complete insistence that outsiders really do not know their game well enough to accurately point out their failings.

In studying the Bears ' defensive performance Sunday, lack of execution did not stand out as much as lack of intensity.
