Back in August,
Bears’ Head Coach John Fox referred to player injuries as “owies,” with the
implication being if it wasn’t broken, then shake it off. Well, that old-school approach ain’t
workin’. An incredibly long list of
injuries now includes quarterback Jay Cutler, likely out for the season—six
games remaining—with a shoulder injury the result of the inability of an
injury-depleted offensive line to protect him.
If he goes down for the count, Cutler will be the third Chicago
quarterback to suffer a season-ending injury.
Owie.
Fox treats the
media like a bunch of idiots, but isn’t he the one feeling dumb what with
linebacker Jerrell Freeman getting slapped with a four-game suspension after
testing positive for PEDs. This comes
eight days after Alshon Jeffery got hit with a four-game suspension for
taking…PEDs. Jeffery blamed an
anti-inflammatory; Freeman said it was a prescription medication that did him
in. The John-Fox Bears also lost two
players to PED suspensions last season.
Yowie.
The Bears hired GM
Ryan Pace last year. From a distance,
Pace is young enough to be mistaken for Theo Epstein of the Cubs. Only Epstein knows how to do his job. So far, the Bears under Pace are 8-18. Powie.
