CHICAGO BEARS

Lovie Smith

Lovie Smith enters his eighth season as the head coach of the Chicago Bears,

tied for second longest tenured head coach with their current team in the NFC

and tied for fi fth longest in the NFL. Smith has a regular season coaching re-

cord of 63-49 (.563) and is 66-52 overall including the playoffs after leading the

Bears to an 11-5 regular season record, NFC North crown and NFC Champion-

ship game appearance in 2010. The Bears have won three division titles under

Smith’s tutelage, most in the NFC North since 2004. Smith signed on as the

Bears 13th head coach all-time on Jan. 15, 2004 and guided the team to its fi rst

Super Bowl appearance in 21 years three seasons later. The 2005 NFL Coach

of the Year came to Chicago from St. Louis where he was the Rams defensive

coordinator for three seasons (2001-03). In Smith’s fi rst season in St. Louis he

helped the Rams return to the Super Bowl. The native Texan took over the Rams

defense after fi ve seasons as Tampa Bay’s linebackers coach. Smith began 26

years as a collegiate and professional coach at his alma mater, Tulsa, in 1983

with fi ve other college stops along the way before moving on to the NFL. He

got his fi rst taste of coaching at his hometown high school, Big Sandy, in 1980

before moving to Cascia Hall Prep in Tulsa.

CLEVELAND BROWNS

Pat Shurmur

Pat Shurmur was named the 13th full-time head coach in franchise history on

January 13, 2011. Prior to being named head coach, Shurmur spent the previ-

ous two seasons as offensive coordinator of the St. Louis Rams (2009-10). Last

season, he helped St. Louis’ offense improve in total yards, time of possession

and third-down percentage, while also scoring 114 more points than the previ-

ous year. Shurmur helped QB Sam Bradford set NFL rookie records for comple-

tions (354) and attempts (590), while his 3,512 passing yards were the second-

most by a rookie in league history, trailing only Peyton Manning’s 3,739 in 1998.

Before joining the Rams, Shurmur spent 10 seasons with the Philadelphia Ea-

gles (1999-2008). He served as the team’s quarterbacks coach from 2002-08

after spending the fi rst three seasons (1999-2001) tutoring the tight ends. Prior

to joining the NFL coaching ranks, Shurmur spent 11 seasons as a collegiate as-

sistant. In 1998 he oversaw Stanford’s offensive line after spending 10 seasons

on Michigan State’s coaching staff as a graduate assistant (1988-89) and tight

ends/special teams/offensive line coach (1990-97).

BEARS-BROWNS SERIES

THE PRESEASON SERIES: The Cleveland Browns have won 17 of the

26 preseason contests with the Chicago Bears since the two storied franchises

fi rst met in 1950.

The Browns started the series with wins each season from 1950-54. The

Bears and Browns then alternated wins in 1995 and ‘56 before Chicago won

two straight from 1957-58. Cleveland won fi ve of the next six contests which

took place from 1959-1980. The two teams did not meet in the preseason

again for another 10 years before a 13-0 shutout by the Bears at the Hall of

Fame game in Canton, Ohio. The fi nal meeting between the franchises before

Cleveland moved to Baltimore came in 1995, a 55-13 victory by the Browns.

Cleveland holds a 5-4 edge since the re-birth of the Browns franchise in

1999. The two teams will be meeting for the eighth consecutive year, with the

Browns holding a slight 4-3 edge in those previous seven contests.

LAST PRESEASON GAME vs. CLEVELAND

Cleveland 13, Chicago 10

Thursday, September 2, 2010 -- Cleveland Browns Stadium

CLEVELAND - Browns K Phil Dawson hit a 36-yard fi eld goal as time expired to give

Cleveland a 13-10 victory over the Bears at Cleveland Browns Stadium to close out the

2010 preseason.

With a handful of Bears fi rst-team starters missing on offense and defense, the units

were productive in their limited time on the fi eld. Starters Jay Cutler (QB), Olin Kreutz (C)

and Matt Forté (RB) all sat out the Bears preseason fi nale on the offensive side of the

ball.

Veteran-signal-caller Todd Collins saw his fi rst action with the Bears, playing the fi rst half

of the contest. Collins was productive, completed 10 of 15 pass attempts for 139 yards and

a touchdown for a 118.5 passer rating. The touchdown was a 15-yard strike to TE Greg

Olsen, which gave the Bears a 7-0 lead fi ve minutes into the fi rst quarter of play.

The drive was set up after the fi rst -team defense recovered a fumble attempt in the

unit’s only play of action. MLB Brian Urlacher and WLB Lance Briggs both sat out

but fi rst-year linebacker Kevin Malast, starting in place of Urlacher, took advantage of his

time with the unit, recovering a botched exchange between Browns C Shawn Lauvao and

rookie QB Colt McCoy at the Browns 19. This was the second-straight year the Bears’ No.

1 defense exited the preseason fi nale after generating a turnover on its only play after CB

Zackary Bowman had an interception against the Browns in 2009 at Soldier Field.

The Browns tied the score on a 1-yard touchdown run by RB Montario Hardesty with

3:40 to play in the fi rst quarter. Like the Bears touchdown, Cleveland’s score was set up

by a botched center-quarterback exchange after Collins was trying to signal for a timeout

when backup C Josh Beekman’s shotgun snap glanced off the quarterback’s facemask.

Browns LB Jason Trusnik recovered the fumble at the Bears 13.

After Dawson’s 24-yard fi eld goal gave the Browns a 10-7 lead with 3:29 left in the sec-

ond period, the Bears tied the game on K Robbie Gould’s 46-yard fi eld goal two minutes

later. Gould’s kick was set up by Collins completions of 22 and 18 yards to WR Rashied

Davis.

The second half degenerated into a punting duel between Brad Maynard of the Bears

and Reggie Hodges of the Browns. The two combined for nine punts in the fi nal two quar-

ters. Maynard’s last effort was blocked by DeAngelo Smith, setting up Dawson’s winning

fi eld goal.

McCoy was 13 of 13 for 131 yards for the Browns before exiting in the third quarter.

As Forté rested, Chester Taylor totaled 23 rushing yards on four carries (5.8 ypr) and

added 12 receiving yards on two catches.

(60.5). Also a threat on the ground, Cutler had a career-high 232 rushing yards in 2010, sixth in the NFL among quarterbacks, and has

rushed for 828 yards in his career with fi ve touchdowns. In the Bears fi rst preseason game of 2011 versus Buffalo, Cutler played one series

completing his only pass attempt for 0 yards and rushed for 10 yards for a fi rst down on third-and-8. Cutler was 12 of 21 for 171 yards, in-

cluding four passes of 20-plus yards to three different receivers, with no interceptions or touchdowns for an 83.6 passer rating, in Chicago’s

second preseason contest at the New York Giants. In Chicago’s third preseason game at Tennessee, he was 13 of 21 passing for 170

yards and an interception.

Backing up Cutler will be Caleb Hanie and rookie Nathan Enderle. Hanie is in his fourth season with the Bears after signing as an

undrafted rookie free agent in 2008. He has appeared in four regular season contests completing eight of 14 pass attempts for 66 yards

and an interception. During the NFC Championship game last season, Hanie replaced an injured Cutler and led the Bears on two scoring

drives, completing 13 of 20 passing attempts for 153 yards, one touchdown and two interceptions. Versus Buffalo, Hanie completed three of

seven pass attempts for 32 yards and found the endzone on a four-yard run for the only touchdown of the game. In his second preseason

contest, Hanie completed 17 of 28 pass attempts for 166 yards with one interception, leading the Bears to their only touchdown drive of the

contest. In Tennessee, Hanie completed nine of 18 pass attempts for 107 yards and an interception.

Enderle, the team’s fi fth round pick (160th overall) in the 2011 NFL Draft, fi nished his career at the University of Idaho as the school’s

all-time leader in attempts (1,427), ranking second in school annals in completions (779), third in passing yards (10,084) and fourth in TD

passes (81) and total offense yards (9,935) in 45 games as a four-year starter. In his fi rst NFL preseason action, Enderle completed seven

of 10 passing attempts for a game-high 110 yards with an interception versus Buffalo, leading the Bears to a fi eld goal in the fourth quarter.

RUNNING BACKS (8) - Coach Tim Spencer

Quickly becoming one of the deepest units on the Bears roster, a pair of familiar veteran dual-threats will roam the Bears backfi eld once

again, while a new veteran face will add even more depth to the group.

Matt Forté enters his fourth season with the Bears, ranking fi fth in the NFL in yards from scrimmage (4,731) since 2008. Starting all 48

games in his fi rst three years with the team, Forté has rushed for 3,236 yards and 18 touchdowns on 811 carries (4.0 ypc). His 171 recep-

tions and 1,495 receiving yards since joining the league in 2008 are the second most by a NFL running back during that span. In 2010,

Forté joined Hall of Famer Walter Payton as the only running backs in team history to have 1,000 rushing yards (1,069) and 500 receiving

yards (547) in a single season. His 4.5 yards per carry in 2010, was highest by a Bears running back since Neal Anderson in 1989 (mini-

mum 200 attempts). In his fi rst start of the 2011 preseason, Forté played in one series and caught one pass for zero yards. Forté totaled 49

yards on fi ve touches in the second preseason contest at New York with four carries for seven yards and one reception for a 42-yard gain.

In Chicago’s third preseason game at the Titans, Forté had a game-high 74 rushing yards on 17 attempts (4.4 ypc) with a touchdown, add-

ing a 15 yard reception.

Chester Taylor enters his second season with the Bears and 10th in the NFL. His 285 receptions and 2,233 receiving yards since enter-

ing the league in 2002 are eighth among NFL running backs during that span. Taylor has also rushed for 4,663 yards and 25 touchdowns

on 1,140 carries (4.1 ypc) during his career. In 2010, Taylor converted nine of 11 attempts into fi rst downs on third-and-1 and fourth-and-1

situations during the regular and post season, including fi ve for touchdowns. Taylor carried the ball three times in the Bears preseason

opener versus Buffalo for three yards. Taylor had seven rushing yards on three carries at the New York Giants in Chicago’s second pre-

season contest, adding a six-yard reception. He did not play at Tennessee.

At the beginning of the Bears 2011 training camp, Chicago signed veteran Marion Barber. Barber spent the last six seasons (2005-

10) with the Dallas Cowboys, carrying the ball 1,042 times for 4,358 (4.2 ypc) and 47 touchdowns in 88 games (41 starts). His 47 rushing

touchdowns during that span ranks sixth in the NFL. He added 1,280 receiving yards and six touchdowns on 174 receptions (7.4 ypr).

Barber reached the Pro Bowl following the 2007 season. Barber carred the ball seven times for 45 yards (6.4 ypc) versus Buffalo in the

preseason opener. At the Giants, in the Bears second preseason game, Barber totaled 80 yards with 49 on the ground (13 carries) and 31

receiving (team-high fi ve catches). At the Titans, Barber had a two-yard run and eight-yard reception before leaving with a calf injury.

A-6

Third-year back Kahlil Bell burst onto the scene in 2009 after he took his fi rst career NFL carry for 72 yards. For his career, Bell has 220

rushing yards on 40 attempts (5.5 ypc). Bell totaled 119 yards with a game-high 73 yards rushing on 13 carries (5.6 ypc) and two receptions

for 46 yards (23.0 ypr) in the Bears fi rst preseason game of 2011 versus Buffalo. Bell had 10 rushing yards and a touchdown (four carries)

in Chicago’s second preseason contest at the New York Giants, adding a nine-yard reception. In the third preseason game at Tennessee,

Bell had 48 rushing yards on 11 attempts (4.4 ypc) and three receptions for 20 yards.

A handful of young backs will also look to make an impact and add even more depth to the group. In 2010, the Bears made

Harvey Unga their fi rst-ever supplemental draft choice when they selected him in the seventh round, however he spent the entire regular

season on injured reserve. Unga carried the ball nine times for 27 yards (3.0 ypc) in the Bears preseason opener versus Buffalo.

Eddie Williams has spent most of his career on the Bears (2010) and Redskins (2009) practice squad. He was elevated to Washing-

ton’s active roster on November 2, 2009 but was inactive for three contests before being placed on injured reserve. At Idaho, Williams

caught 100 passes for 1,205 yards and 11 touchdowns, adding 19 rushes for 195 yards and three scores.

Will Ta’ufo’ou spent the previous two preseasons with Chicago as well as the entire 2009 regular season on the Bears practice squad.

Known for his blocking, Ta’ufo’ou received all-Pac 10 honorable mention as a senior at Cal (2008).

Robert Hughes (Notre Dame) also joined the team as an undrafted free agent.

WIDE RECEIVERS (10) - Coach Darryl Drake

Looking to add a new dynamic to a young, yet explosive group, the Bears signed two tall veterans to strengthen an already solid receiving

corps that has size, speed and play-making ability.

The Bears added veteran receiver Roy Williams at the beginning of the preseason, giving the Bears a 6-3, 215-pound target. Williams

has hauled in 356 receptions for 5,208 yards (14.6 ypc) and 42 touchdowns in 100 career games played (84 starts). He was in Detroit when

current Bears offensive coordinator Mike Martz held the same title for the Lions (2006-07). In those two seasons, Williams had 146 recep-

tions for 2,148 yards (14.7 ypc) and 12 touchdowns, including a Pro Bowl nod following the 2006 season. In the third preseason start at

Tennessee, Williams had two receptions for 33 yards.

Entering his fourth full season as a wideout for the Chicago Bears, Devin Hester has 168 career receptions for 2,196 receiving yards

and 12 touchdowns. In 2010, Hester had 40 receptions for 475 yards and a career-high four touchdowns. He is the 10th player in NFL

history with 2,000 receiving, punt and kickoff return yards. Hester recorded three receptions for 46 yards at New York, including a 37-yard

grab. In his third start of the 2011 preseason, Hester had two receptions for 31 yards.

Wideout Johnny Knox has 96 receptions for 1,487 yards (15.5 yards per catch) and 10 touchdowns in his fi rst two seasons for Chicago.

In 2010, Knox ranked fi fth in the NFL in receiving average, 18.8 ypc, after hauling in 51 passes for 960 yards. Knox’s 960 receiving yards

were 13th most in Bears single-season franchise history and most since Marty Booker in 2002. Knox had one reception for 11 yards in the

Bears preseason opener versus Buffalo. He added two receptions for 21 yards, including a 20-yarder, in the Bears second preseason game

against the Giants. At the Titans, Knox had a 21-yard reception.

In three previous seasons, Earl Bennett has hauled in 100 receptions for 1,278 yards and fi ve touchdowns. In 2010, Bennett had

46 receptions for 561 yards and a career-high three touchdowns. Over the last nine weeks of the 2010 regular season, Bennett had 11

receptions on third down, converting all of them for fi rst downs, tied for ninth most in the NFL. Bennett had a seven-yard reception in the

Bears preseason opener versus Buffalo. In the Bears second preseason contest at the New York Giants, Bennett had three receptions for a

game-high 58 receiving yards, including two receptions of 20-plus yards (32 and 21) from Cutler. In Tennessee, Bennett once again paced

all receivers in the game with 89 receiving yards on six catches.

Along with Williams, the Bears brought in another tall (6-3) target in Sam Hurd. In fi ve seasons with the Cowboys, Hurd had 45 recep-

tions for 630 yards and two touchdowns. Known for his versatility and strength, Hurd registered 72 special teams tackles – including 40

over the last two seasons - and two forced fumbles. In 2010, Hurd recorded a career-high 21 special teams tackles to go along with 14

receptions for 120 yards.

Chicago signed Onrea Jones in the offseason. Jones has spent time with the Chargers, Packers, Colts, Cardinals and Redskins, seeing

a majority of his time on practice squads having never appeared in a regular season game. Jones had three grabs for 48 yards in the Bears

second preseason contest at New York. He had a 20-yard grab in Tennessee.

Andy Fantuz will join the Bears from the Canadian Football League where he led the CFL with 1,380 receiving yards on 87 catches

(15.9 ypc) and 6 touchdowns in 2010. Fantuz spent fi ve seasons with the Saskatchewan Roughriders (2006-10) in the CFL, hauling in 276

receptions for 4,136 yards (15.0 ypc) and 23 touchdowns.

The Bears added rookie free agents Kris Adams (UTEP), Dane Sanzenbacher (Ohio St.) and Jimmy Young (TCU) this offseason.

Adams paced the Bears with three receptions for 58 yards in his preseason debut versus Buffalo, adding a 12-yard reception in New York.

Sanzenbacher had four catches for 34 yards in Chicago’s fi rst preseason road game at New York. He followed up that performance with

two receptions for 23 yards in Tennessee.

A-7

TIGHT ENDS (5) - Coach Mike DeBord

The Bears tight ends will have a much different look entering the 2011 season with three veterans that display size and strength and rook-

ies looking to add depth to the position.

In eight seasons with the Bears, veteran Desmond Clark ranks ninth in team history with 242 receptions. His 2,639 receiving yards

ranks 20th in Bears annals and his 18 touchdown receptions are tied for 18th. Clark has appeared in 110 contests with 99 starts for

Chicago. In 12 previous NFL seasons with Denver (1999-2001), Miami (2002) and Chicago (2003-10), Clark has appeared in 162 games

with 105 starts, recording 323 receptions for 3,591 yards (11.1 ypc) with 27 touchdowns. Clark had one reception for 14 yards in the Bears

preseason opener versus Buffalo and a six-yard grab at New York in the following contest. Clark left the Titans game with a knee injury.

Entering his fourth NFL season, Kellen Davis has hauled in fi ve of his 12 career receptions, including the postseason, for touchdowns.

His 2.4 receptions per touchdown ratio is third best in franchise history. At 6-7, 262 pounds, Davis has been used mostly in red zone pack-

ages and on special teams in his fi rst three seasons and will look to increase his role in 2011. Davis started the fi rst two preseason contests

before missing the third with a back injury.

The Bears added veteran Matt Spaeth before training camp. The fi fth year veteran started 40 of 60 games played, accumulating 36

receptions for 275 yards and fi ve touchdowns with the Pittsburgh Steelers. In 2010, he started 13 of 14 games played, grabbing nine recep-

tions for 80 yards and a touchdown. Spaeth started Chicago’s fi rst three preseason games in a two-tight end set. He had a six-yard grab at

the Giants in the second preseason game. Spaeth had a four-yard grab for a fi rst down at Tennessee.

Adding depth to the unit are rookie free agents Kyle Adams (Purdue) and Andre Smith (Virginia Tech). Adams had two receptions for 12

yards in Chicago’s second preseason contest at the New York Giants. He had two receptions for 13 yards against the Titans.

OFFENSIVE LINE (13) - Coach Mike Tice

The offensive line will have a mix of veterans, sizable youth and new acquisitions shaping the cornerstone of the Bears offense.

Roberto Garza is the veteran of the group, entering his 11th NFL season and his seventh with Chicago. Likely to hold down a start-

ing role at either center or guard, the durable lineman has appeared in all 100 games (94 regular season and six playoff) since joining the

Bears in 2005. In 2010, he started all 14 regular season games he appeared in and both postseason contests. Prior to his time in Chicago,

Garza spent four seasons with the Atlanta Falcons appearing in 52 games with 31 starts. He has played each of the interior offensive line

spots during his career. Garza started the fi rst three preseason contests at center for the Bears.

The guard positions are currently being held by Chris Williams and Lance Louis.

Williams fi nished the 2010 season starting the fi nal 11 regular season contests and the two playoff contests at left guard. The 2008

fi rst-rounder (14th overall) has also started seven contests at left tackle after starting his Bears career at the right tackle position (11 starts).

Williams started at left guard in all three of Chicago’s preseason contests.

Louis started the fi rst four games at right guard for the Bears in 2010. The 2009 seventh round (246th overall) selection, appeared in all

16 contests last season, the fi nal 12 as a reserve. In Chicago’s fi rst three preseason games, Louis has started at right guard.

Gabe Carimi and J’Marcus Webb hold down the starting left and right tackle positions and each have the adaptability to play on either

side of the line.

In his rookie season in 2010, Webb started the last 12 regular season contests and both playoff games at right tackle. At 6-7,

333-pounds, the 2010 seventh-round (218th overall) selection is the biggest player on the roster. Webb started all three preseason contests

at left tackle.

Carimi was selected by the Bears with the 29th overall pick in the fi rst round of the 2011 NFL Draft. The 6-7, 316-pound tackle was

named the 2010 Outland Trophy award winner after being a four-year starter at left tackle (49 starts) for the Wisconsin Badgers (2006-10).

Carimi has started at right tackle in the fi rst three of Chicago’s 2011 preseason contests.

Free agent acquisition Chris Spencer has the versatility to start at center or guard. Spencer started 70 of 80 games played for the Se-

ahawks over the last six seasons, after being selected 26th overall in the fi rst round of the 2005 NFL Draft by Seattle. The 6-3, 309-pounder

started all 16 regular season contests and both playoff games at center for the Seahawks last season.

Adding depth are Frank Omiyale and Edwin Williams.

Omiyale is a versatile lineman who can play both tackle and guard positions. The veteran, who has experience at both the tackle and

guard spots, has started 28 regular season contests (2 at right tackle, 12 at left guard and 14 at left tackle) and two postseason games (at

left tackle) over the last two seasons with Chicago. Prior to coming to the Bears, Omiyale appeared in 10 games for the Carolina Panthers

in 2008, including one start at left tackle.

Williams started three of fi ve contests played last season at right guard after being claimed off of waivers in September of 2010. For his

career, Williams has started fi ve of nine regular season games, all at right guard, with Chicago (2010) and Washington (2009).

Johan Asiata has spent a majority of the last two seasons on the Bears practice squad after entering with the team as an undrafted free

agent out of UNLV in 2009. Last season, Asiata appeared in two contests as a reserve lineman. Levi Horn spent the entire 2010 season on

the Bears practice squad after joining the team as an undrafted free agent out of Montana in 2010.

Chicago also added undrafted rookies Josh Davis (Georgia), Ricky Henry (Nebraska) and Alex Linnenkohl (Oregon State) in 2011.

BEARS POSITION BREAKDOWN: DEFENSE

DEFENSIVE COORDINATOR ROD MARINELLI

DEFENSIVE LINE (13) - Coach Mike Phair

Chicago’s front-four will bolster an All-Pro, trusted veterans, new athletic acquisitions looking to make an impact and rookies hungry to help

add depth.

DEFENSIVE ENDS (6)

Julius Peppers, who enters his 10th year in the NFL and second with the Bears, has 89 career sacks, third most in the NFL since

joining the league in 2002. The six-time Pro Bowler has added eight interceptions, 32 forced fumbles, 47 pass break ups, seven fumble

cago, Peppers recorded eight sacks, six tackles for losses, two interceptions, seven pass break ups and three forced fumbles. Peppers has

started at right defensive end in all three preseason contests.

Israel Idonije is coming off a career year in which he tied for the team lead with Peppers registering eight sacks (one of eight duos in

the NFL to each record eight sacks). Idonije has appeared in 102 games over the last seven seasons with the Bears, recording 165 tackles

with 16 sacks, 11 TFLs, four forced fumbles, two fumble recoveries and 15 pass break ups. Fourteen of his 16 career sacks have come

in the last three seasons. In 2010, Idonije also set career highs with 46 tackles, three forced fumbles and four TFLs. Idonije has been the

starting left defensive end in the Bears fi rst three preseason contests.

Young players will look to add depth to the experienced duo in the defensive end rotation.

Corey Wootton enters his second season in Chicago playing in six contests his rookie season for the Bears, registering six tackles and

one sack. Wootton’s fi rst career sack came on December 20, 2010, at Minnesota against Brett Favre (12 yards). Wootton missed the last

two preseason contests due to a knee injury.

Earlier in the offseason, the Bears added veteran Nick Reed who spent the 2009 season with the Seattle Seahawks. In 16 games

In the fi rst game versus Buffalo he had two tackles, including one for a loss of three yards in one quarter of work, and had two stops in the

second contest at the New York Giants. Against the Titans he recorded one tackle.

The Bears added veteran depth to inside of the line when they signed Amobi Okoye early in the preseason. In four seasons with Hous-

ton (2007-10), Okoye started 58 of 62 contests, recording 138 tackles, 11 sacks, two forced fumbles and two fumble recoveries. In 2010,

LINEBACKERS (10) - Coach Bob Babich

A signature of the Bears defense, Chicago’s linebacking corps will once again be considered among the best units in the NFL in 2011.

Brian Urlacher will man the middle of the defense after reaching his seventh Pro Bowl following the 2010 season. Entering his 12th

NFL season, Urlacher has registered a Bears franchise record 1,556 tackles (since 1971 when the stat was fi rst recorded). Urlacher is the

only active player in the NFL to record 40 sacks (41.5), 10 interceptions (18) and 10 fumble recoveries (12) in his career. In 2010, Urlacher

paced the Bears in tackles for the eighth time in his career with 146. He also led the team with 11 tackles for losses, 13 pass break ups

and three fumble recoveries and added four sacks, two forced fumbles and an interception. Urlacher started at linebacker in the Bears fi rst

Weakside linebacker Lance Briggs became just the fourth linebacker in franchise history to be named to six consecutive Pro Bowls

following the 2010 season, joining Hall of Famers Dick Butkus (eight straight), Bill George (eight) and Mike Singletary (ten). Briggs has

1,139 career tackles, third most in Bears franchise history, in eight seasons, leading the team in the category in 2004, 2008 and 2009, while

fi nishing second each season from 2005-07 and in 2010. He has missed only four contests his entire career, starting 121 of 124 games

season. In four seasons, Roach has started 30 (27 at SLB and 3 MLB) of 48 games played, recording 133 tackles, two sacks, four forced

fumbles, 12 tackles for losses and six pass break ups. On special teams, Roach has recorded 27 tackles for Chicago. Roach started the

Bears last two preseason contests at strongside linebacker. At New York he recorded two tackles, including one for a loss. In Tennessee,

he assisted on a tackle that resulted in a four-yard loss.

Brian Iwuh will add depth for a second straight season. The veteran linebacker has appeared in 74 contests with four starts over the

last fi ve seasons with the Jacksonville Jaguars (2006-09) and Chicago Bears (2010), recording 80 tackles, three forced fumbles, one

J.T. Thomas was selected by the Bears in the sixth round (195th overall) of the 2011 NFL Draft. At West Virginia, the two-time all-Big

East fi rst-team selection tallied 233 tackles (106 solo), six sacks, 27 TFLs, two interceptions, 13 pass break ups, four forced fumbles and

four fumble recoveries in 49 career games (39 starts).

Newly signed 2011 undrafted rookie free agents Tressor Baptiste (Texas A&M-Kingsville), Dom DeCicco (Pittsburgh) and Deron Minor

(McNeese State) will also add depth to the group. Last season the Bears added undrafted free agents Chris Johnson (South Dakota State)

and Patrick Trahan (Mississippi) late in the season from the Cardinals and Titans, respectively. Johnson spent the last nine weeks of the

regular season and the entire playoffs on the Bears practice squad. DeCicco paced the linebackers with four tackles in his NFL preseason

debut versus Buffalo, leading the group once again with three tackles at the Giants. In Tennessee, DeCicco had four tackles, including a

stop for a three-yard loss. Versus the Titans, Trahan blocked a punt.

DEFENSIVE BACKS (15) - Coach Jon Hoke

CORNERBACKS (8)

Charles Tillman will hold down one of the corner spots for the ninth straight season while a handful of players will battle for the starting role

on the opposite side in 2011.

Tillman has started 110 of 114 career games played for Chicago, leading the active roster with 27 career interceptions, tied for fourth

most in team history. The takeaway specialist has also forced 24 fumbles in his career, most among NFL defensive backs since 2003.

Bills and two tackles at the Giants. Moore had a solo stop at Tennessee.

D.J. Moore manned the nickel position in the secondary last season, fi nishing third on the team with four interceptions. Moore returned

those interceptions for 95 yards and a touchdown as his 23.8 yards per return average was fourth highest in the NFL. In 16 contests, he

added 44 tackles, one sack, one forced fumble, three pass break ups and three tackles for losses. Moore started at nickleback for the

Bears and had one tackle versus the Bills. At the Giants, he had four defensive tackles and two special teams stops. At Tennessee, Moore

had two tackles.

Corey Graham has appeared in 61 contests with 10 starts in four seasons for Chicago gathering 111 tackles, one interception and nine

pass break ups. On special teams, Graham’s 82 career tackles are second most by a Bears player since the statistic was fi rst recorded in

1995. In 2010, Graham led Chicago with 25 specials teams tackles (after coaches review) and led the NFL in “press box” special teams

tackles with 22. Graham had two defensive stops and two special teams tackles versus Buffalo. He paced the Bears with six defensive

tackles at the New York Giants with one pass defensed and two special teams stops.

The Bears also added undrafted free agents Antareis Bryan (Baylor) and Ryan Jones (Northwest Missouri State) in 2011.

SAFETIES (6) - Coach Gill Byrd

In 2011, a familiar face will man one of the Bears’ safety positions while a young face will emerge in the other starting role.

After returning to the Bears via trade in 2010 Chris Harris, was named second team All-Pro after recording a career-high fi ve intercep-

tions, all in the last nine contests of the regular season, tied for second most in the NFL during that span. In six NFL seasons with Chicago

(2005-06, ’10) and Carolina (2007-09), Harris has started 80 of 85 games played, recording 460 tackles, 15 interceptions, 25 pass break-

ups, 12 forced fumbles and eight fumble recoveries. Harris started all three 2011 preseason contests at strong safety. Versus Buffalo Harris

recorded two tackles in less than a quarter of action. At the Giants, Harris had four tackles in a half of action. He had two stops at Tennes-

see.

A handful of players will have the opportunity to start opposite of Harris with second-year safety Major Wright the lead candidate. In 11

contests during his rookie season, Wright who was the Bears fi rst selection in the 2010 draft (3rd round, 75th overall), recorded 31 defen-

sive tackles and six special teams stops. Wright started the Bears preseason opener against the Bills at free safety and paced the team

with fi ve tackles. In his second preseason start at the Giants, Wright had three tackles. Starting his third preseason contest at free safety,

Wright had four tackles.

Fourth-year safety Craig Steltz has appeared in 32 career NFL games with two starts at strong safety, recording 23 tackles, one inter-

ception and 25 special teams stops. Steltz recorded three tackles versus Buffalo. He had fi ve tackles at New York in the second presason

game and three stops at Tennessee.

During the 2011 NFL Draft, the Bears selected Chris Conte in the third round (93rd overall). Conte appeared in 50 games at California

(2007-10) making 17 starts (12 at safety, fi ve at corner). He recorded 157 tackles (100 solo), two interceptions, 11 pass break ups, one forced

fumble, a fumble recovery and blocked a punt that he returned for a touchdown. He was a fi rst-team all-Pac-10 member as a senior. In his

NFL preseason debut versus the Bills, Conte recorded three tackles. He had one defensive tackle and one special teams stop in Tennessee.

Chicago also added undrafted rookie free agents Winston Venable (Boise State) and Anthony Walters (Delaware) into the safety mix this

offseason.

RETURNERS (3)

Over the past fi ve seasons, Devin Hester, Johnny Knox and Earl Bennett have formed the most dynamic set of returners in the NFL.

In just fi ve seasons, Hester has established an NFL record with 14 career kick return touchdowns (10 punt and four kickoff). The three-

time Pro Bowler’s career average of 12.4 yards per return (2,200 yards on 178 returns) is fourth best in NFL history. Hester’s 10 punt return

touchdowns are tied with Eric Metcalf for most in league history. In 2010, the All-Pro had 33 punt returns for 564 yards and three touchdowns.

His 17.1 yards per return average last year is highest in single-season NFL history among players with 30 returns.

Knox has 40 kickoff returns for 1,109 yards (27.7 ypr) and a touchdown. In 2009, Knox earned a Pro Bowl nod as a rookie after fi nishing

second in the NFL with a 29.0 kickoff return average (927 yards on 32 returns). Knox had a 70-yard kickoff return versus the Bills in the pre-

season opener adding 16 yards on two punt returns. In the second preseason contest at the Giants, Knox had three kickoff returns for 87 yards

(29.0 ypr) including a 45-yarder, and two punt returns for 15 yards. At Tennessee, he had two kickoff returns for 45 yards.

Bennett has returned 15 career punts for 160 yards (10.7 ypr) and a touchdown. In 2009, when Hester was injured, Bennett fi lled in on punt

returns and fi nished with a 10.2 average (143 yards on 14 returns), including a 49-yard touchdown. The 10.2 average was 13th in the league

among players with 10-plus returns. Bennett had a 33-yard punt return in the Bears fi rst preseason contest versus Buffalo.

PLACE KICKERS (1)

Place kicker Robbie Gould is the fi fth most accurate kicker in NFL history, connecting on 159 of 186 (85.5 percent) of his career fi eld goal at-

tempts. His 159 fi eld goals made are second most in franchise history and are the most in the NFL since Week 4 of the 2005 season when he

appeared in his fi rst career game. In 2010, Gould connected on 25 of 30 fi eld goals (83.3 percent) including a career-long 54-yarder. Gould’s

685 career points scored (208 PATs and 159 fi eld goals) are third most in Bears franchise history. His fi ve 100-point seasons and six seasons

with 20-plus fi eld goals made are tied with Kevin Butler for most in team history.

PUNTERS (2)

The Bears signed veteran punter Adam Podlesh this offseason. Podlesh spent the last four seasons with the Jacksonville Jaguars compiling

a 42.6 gross punting average (9,751 yards on 229 punts), landing 75 punts inside-the-20. In 2010, Podlesh set career highs in gross (43.8)

and net average (39.2) and punts inside-the-20 (26). In his Bears preseason debut versus Buffalo, Podlesh had four punts for 128 yards (32.0

avg), landing two inside-the-20. He had three punts for 129 yards (43.0 avg.), in the second preseason contest at New York. Against the Titans,

Podlesh averaged 41 yards on two punts, landing one inside-the-20.

The Bears have also added P Spencer Lanning (South Carolina) as an undrafted free agent. Lanning had two punts for 84 yards (42.0

avg.) against the Giants.

LONG SNAPPERS (1)

Arguably the best long snapper in the NFL, Patrick Mannelly is the Bears all-time leader in games played (205). Heading into his 14th season,

which will tie him for the most in team history along with Doug Buffone (1966-79) and Bill George (1952-65), Mannelly has been the long snap-

per in all but three contests since joining the team in 1998. One of the top punt coverage performers for his position in the league, Mannelly has

totaled 77 career special teams tackles.

BEARS PRESEASON QUICK HITS

OFFSEASON ACQUISITIONS: During the 2011 offseason the Bears acquired seven veterans that are currently on the Bears

roster. In a shortened free agent signning period, the Bears were able to ink veterans in all three phases of the team. Offensively, Chi-

cago signed RB Marion Barber (two-year contract), WR Sam Hurd (three-year deal), TE Matt Spaeth (three-year contract),

C Chris Spencer (two-year deal) and WR Roy Williams (one-year contract). Defensively, the Monsters of the Midway added

DT Amobi Okoye (one-year deal). P Adam Podlesh (one-year contract) was added to the Bears special teams unit.

ROSTER RECAP: The Bears entered the 2011 preseason with 47 players who appeared on the roster last season, including 17

primary starters during the season. Twenty-fi ve of the Bears 26 rookies have made their NFL debut this preseason. Ten non-rookie

acquisitions (RB Marion Barber, WR Andy Fantuz, WR Sam Hurd, WR Onrea Jones, DT Amobi Okoye, P Adam

Podlesh, DE Nick Reed, TE Matt Spaeth, C Chris Spencer, WR Roy Williams) all suited up in a Bears uniform for

the fi rst time in the Bears preseason opener against the Bills.

ROSTER CUTS: On Tuesday, August 30, the Bears must cut their roster down to 80 players by 3:00 p.m. CT. Four days later

(Saturday, September 3) each NFL team is required to trim its roster to 53 players by 5:00 p.m. CT. The following day all clubs may

establish a practice squad of eight players. To be eligible for the practice squad, a player must not have an accrued season toward

free agency. If a player does have an accrued season, he is still eligible for the practice squad if he was not on the active or inactive

list for more than nine regular season games. The NFL expanded the size of each team’s practice squad from fi ve to eight players

beginning in 2004. The Bears currently have four players on their roster from last season’s practice squad (T Levi Horn, LB Chris

Johnson and FB Eddie Williams). G Johan Asiata spent time on both the active roster and the practice squad in 2010.

G/C Edwin Williams was also on the Bears practice squad last season before being elevated to the active roster.

UP NEXT: The 2010 NFC North champion Chicago Bears will open their 2011 regular season schedule at home versus the 2010

NFC South champion Atlanta Falcons on Sunday, September 11 at Noon CST.

The match up marks the 25th meeting between the Bears and the Falcons, dating back to a 23-6 Chicago win at Wrigley Field in

1966. The fi rst 24 meetings have been split evenly, 12-12.

This year will be just the third time that the two franchises have opened the regular season against one another with the Falcons

taking the fi rst two such match-ups in 1972 and 1983.

Chicago 10, Buffalo 3

Saturday, August 13, 2011 -- Soldier Field

CHICAGO – Fueled by a strong running game and a stingy defense, the Bears defeated

the Buffalo Bills 10-3 in Saturday night’s preseason opener at Soldier Field.

The rushing attack produced 164 yards as Marion Barber compiled 45 yards on

seven carries in the second quarter and Kahlil Bell gained a game-high 73 yards on 13

attempts in the second half.

On the game’s lone touchdown drive in the second quarter, Barber rushed for 37 yards

on six carries to set up backup quarterback Caleb Hanie’s four-yard scoring run up the

middle on third-and-goal.

Hanie’s touchdown gave the Bears a 7-3 lead with 8:07 left in the fi rst half. The score

remained unchanged until Robbie Gould’s 45-yard fi eld goal widened the margin to

10-3 with 5:52 to play in the game.

The Bears defense held the Bills to 190 yards and no touchdowns. Buffalo crossed the

50-yard line on only two of 10 possessions in the game. The Bills’ deepest penetration was

to the Chicago 26 on a fi rst-quarter drive that resulted in their only score, Rian Lindell’s

44-yard fi eld goal.

While starting quarterback Jay Cutler exited after only one possession, the No. 1 of-

fensive line yielded four sacks while playing the entire fi rst half. The reserves then allowed

fi ve more sacks in the second half.

After the Bills took a 3-0 lead with 2:00 left in the fi rst quarter, Johnny Knox returned

the ensuing kickoff 70 yards to the Buffalo 29. But Bills linebacker Shawne Merriman

sacked Hanie on back-to-back plays, pushing the Bears out of fi eld goal range.

On the Bears’ next possession, Barber had runs of 11, 12 and 11 yards to set up Hanie’s

touchdown. On one of the plays, Barber steamrolled Bills cornerback Drayton Florence.

Bell set up Gould’s fourth-quarter fi eld goal by gaining 27 yards on a run and 19 yards on

a screen pass on back-to-back snaps, picking up nice blocks from tight end Kyle Adams

on the fi rst play and guard Levi Horn on the second.

Defensively, tackle Amobi Okoye recorded the Bears’ only two sacks and cornerback

Mike Holmes produced Chicago’s lone takeaway with an interception.

Monday, August 22, 2011 -- New Meadowlands Stadium

EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. – The Bears fell to 1-1 on the preseason as all three phases

struggled in a 41-13 loss to the New York Giants on Monday night at New Meadowlands

Stadium.

Offensively, the Bears yielded only one sack after allowing nine in the preseason opener,

but struggled inside the red zone mustering only six points until their fi nal possession of the

game.

The Bears defense allowed fi ve touchdowns and two fi eld goals on nine possessions

during one stretch while failing to record a sack or a takeaway in the game.

The Bears didn’t perform any better on special teams. The Giants scored their fi rst two

touchdowns in taking a 20-6 halftime lead after Devin Thomas returned a kickoff 73 yards

to the Chicago 31 and Greg Jones blocked a punt and returned it to the Bears’ 6.

After Rhys Lloyd’s 25-yard fi eld goal had given the Giants a 3-0 lead, Robbie Gould’s

23-yarder tied the score late in the fi rst quarter. The kick came after QB Jay Cutler hit WR

Devin Hester streaking down the right sideline for 37 yards and RB Matt Forte turned

a screen pass into a 42-yard gain to the Giants’ 7.

Thomas’ long kickoff return then set up Brandon Jacobs’ 18-yard touchdown run on the

fi rst play of the second quarter, which gave the Giants a 10-3 lead they would not relin-

quish. The 6-4, 264-pound running back burst through a gaping hole up the middle and

faked out S Major Wright in the secondary.

After Lloyd’s 37-yard fi eld goal widened the margin to 13-3 midway through the second

period, Cutler’s 32-yard completion to WR Earl Bennett set up Gould’s 42-yard fi eld

goal, drawing the Bears to within 13-6. The offensive line provided excellent protection on

the long pass over the middle.

Playing the entire fi rst half with the rest of the starters, Cutler completed 12 of 21 passes

for 171 yards and an 83.6 passer rating while being sacked only once.

Two plays after the Giants had taken over at the Chicago 6 following the blocked punt,

QB David Carr lofted a fi ve-yard touchdown pass in the right corner of the end zone to

WR Domenik Hixon, who beat CB Corey Graham to widen the margin to 20-6 with 35

seconds left in the half.

The Giants eventually increased their lead to 41-6, scoring touchdowns on D.J. Ware’s

one-yard run, Carr’s 17-yard pass to TE Daniel Coats and Da’Rel Scott’s 97-yard run with

2:46 to play.

The Bears scored their only touchdown of the game with 24 seconds remaining on RB

Kahlil Bell’s one-yard dive.

Tennessee 14, Chicago 13

Saturday, August 27, 2011 -- LP Field

NASHVILLE, Tenn. – The Bears left Tennessee late Saturday with their second straight

preseason loss. But the LP Field scoreboard that displayed a 14-13 Titans victory didn’t

convey the whole story.

With the regular-season opener against the Atlanta Falcons just two weeks away, the

Bears made key improvements in the wake of their discouraging defeat to the New York

Giants fi ve days earlier.

After rushing for 81 yards against the Giants, the Bears amassed 148 yards on the

ground as Matt Forté gained 74 yards on 17 carries and Kahlil Bell added 48 yards on

11 attempts.

The biggest positive for the Bears (1-2), however, was a second straight stellar perfor-

mance by their offensive line. In addition to opening holes for the rushing attack, the line

provided excellent pass protection, yielding just one sack for the second straight game.

QB Jay Cutler looked sharp, completing 13 of 21 passes for 170 yards with one inter-

ception and a 67.6 passer rating before exiting after one third-quarter possession. His only

pick came on a pass that squirted through receiver Roy Williams’ hands on the game’s

second play from scrimmage.

The Bears dominated the Titans on the stat sheet, holding decisive advantages in total

yards (416-220), fi rst downs (27-12) and time of possession (35:37-24:23).

But while there were many positives, the Bears struggled in other areas. The offense

mustered just one touchdown for the third straight game, backup QB Caleb Hanie

threw an interception that was returned for the decisive touchdown and Chicago receivers

dropped several passes.

On the other side of the ball, the Bears permitted just one touchdown. But the defense

failed to generate a takeaway for the second straight game and has now produced just one

in three preseason contests.

After Cutler’s early interception, the Bears defense held the Titans without a fi rst down

and K Rod Bironas pushed a 51-yard fi eld goal attempt wide right.

Forte’s 3-yard touchdown run gave the Bears a 7-0 lead midway through the fi rst quar-

ter. Cutler converted all three third-down opportunities on the drive with completions to

receivers Earl Bennett, Dane Sanzenbacher and Devin Hester. The Chicago

offense was 0-of-6 on third downs in the fi rst half against the Giants.

The Bears were in position to pad their lead on their next possession, but K Robbie

Gould hit the left upright on a 29-yard fi eld goal attempt.

Gould rebounded from the miss by drilling a 45-yarder to extend the Bears’ lead to 10-0

with 5:34 left in the second quarter. The kick came after Cutler had completed passes of 21

yards to WR Johnny Knox and 20 yards to Bennett on back-to-back plays.

The Titans, however, cut the defi cit to 10-7 as Jamie Harper’s 9-yard touchdown run

capped a 10-play, 80-yard drive with :43 remaining in the half.

The Bears were on the cusp of widening the margin late in the third quarter when Hanie

fl oated a pass into the right fl at that was intercepted by CB Tommie Campbell, who re-

turned the pick 88 yards for a touchdown to give the Titans a 14-10 lead.

The Bears closed the gap to 14-13 on Gould’s 52-yard fi eld goal early in the fourth quar-

ter, but they never threatened to retake the lead the rest of the way.
