Brian Urlacher Might Actually Miss Kyle Orton
1-liner, NFL December 1st. 2009, 3:50pmBrian Urlacher: “I hate the way our identity has changed. We used to establish the run and wear teams down and try not to make mistakes, and we’d rely on our defense to keep us in the game and make big plays to put us in position to win. Kyle Orton might not be the flashiest quarterback, but the guy is a winner, and that formula worked for us. I hate to say it, but that’s the truth.” Also in this pretty good piece on Urlacher – the linebacker says that Ricky Williams is “best” back he’s played against. Adrian Peterson will use this to rush for 175 yards this week. [Yahoo]

Ricky Williams was un-fucking-believable before he left to smoke weed everyday. you didn’t ahve to worry bout the pass against the dolphins, yet he still put up awesome numbers.

Hi, I’m Michael Silver, and I hang out with washed up athletes. Step into my world.

Urlacher is a fuckin insecure douchebag.
How many playoffs did Kyle Orton lead you too Brian???
December 1st, 2009 at 4:06 PM
is he the only nfl player that is on the sideline for every game that is on IR?
December 1st, 2009 at 4:06 PM
Probably the same amount Jay Cutler has gone to.

Yea, back when you had a working spine.

Cutlers time as a Bear and Ortons time is not yet comparable.
Also, Urlacher talks as if Orton was this great QB that took them to multiple super bowls.

Urlacher is obviously living in the past.
Have you seen the Bears defense? You gonna rely on that to help you win???

How many playoffs has Cutler been to? How about SEC championships? High School?
December 1st, 2009 at 4:15 PM
How, exactly, is Cutler to blame for the coaches (including Ron Turner) going away from the run? Brian Urlacher is not only an overrated douche bag, he’s also an idiot.

The Bears haven’t had a strong running game since Neal Anderson (Thomas Jones was decent and Forte had an overrated rookie season) and their one Super Bowl run came in a horribly weak NFC (the #2 seed was 10-6 for Christ’s sakes)…Bear football was never going to win a championship since even in their strong defensive seasons (2005 and 2006, in 2001 they were more lucky than good) they weren’t close to being 2000 Ravens or 2002 Bucs good

the bears should just draft a new rb every year and then trade him.

Michael Silver is a complete famewhore. His column is practically unreadable. “And then I got a text from a certain Hall of Fame-bound defensive tackle.” Gah.
I do think the evolution of Urlacher from untouchable All-Pro and Butkus heir apparent to (apparently) most hated man in Chicago sports is kinda funny, tho.
