So yesterday I went to the most fun Chicago Bears game I have ever been to. The game was at Soldier Field, where the Bears hosted the Denver Broncos… where Shanahan thought it would be a good idea to kick to Devin Hester. Devin Hester returned the kick for a td… twice. He has now scored 3 less tds in 10% of the games of the all time leader! In one of the returns, he leaped right over Bronco's punter Todd Sauerbrun like a fallen hurdle. All this after he had fumbled one a stupid play to allow Denver their first three points of the game.The Bears defense looked soft but behind Hester, a blocked punt by Peanut Tillman and a drive by Rex Grossman with phenomenal catch by Berrian. Though they looked soft, down the stretch, they seemed to start getting the stops they needed.
The Bears got the ball first in the overtime and wasted no time moving down the field and winning thanks to a big catch by Desmond Clark and then a Robbie Gould field goal.

Some people seem to be saying, "the Bears are back!" I still think its a little early for that. The division is lost, and they are back in the Wild Card hunt, but this is one game. They have some big games coming up with the Giants, Washington and Minnesota. All are virtually must wins if they want a crack at the post season.
The Bears lost running back Cedric Benson to an ankle injury but Adrian Peterson stepped up to the plate and made a couple big plays for the Bears. And though he is the weakest player on the team and is responsible for a couple huge Broncos plays… this will get Adam Archuleta a get out of jail free card. I saw Jennifer Walcott at the game yesterday wearing his jersey. If you don’t know who she is, please see below.
