Quotable:

“We can spend all week breaking down how the Bears’ defensive scheme can improve against the run the way we broke down how it could improve against the pass after the Tennessee loss. As bad as the Bears were in giving up a season-worst 200 rushing yards to Grant and the Packers’ running game, that could be a five-part series.

But before you get out the yellow pad and start scribbling down all your best suggestions on X’s and O’s, understand it’s not that complicated.

All the instruction the Bears really need to recover from the worst loss to their division rivals in 14 years can be found in an anatomy textbook and a calendar.

They can use the anatomy text to show players how the final six games, more than anything, will test how much heart they have. The calendar is a must so everybody in the locker room can finally get the message this isn’t 2006 anymore.

That goes for slumping return man Devin Hester (who was benched), a stubborn coaching staff and especially anybody associated with the NFL’s most overrated defense.” – David Haugh, Chicago Tribune
