Pegged to be washed up -- no pun intended -- after being arrested as part of a boating party scandal a few years ago as a member of the Chicago Bears, Benson got a second chance to revive his career with the Bengals midway through last season. Since then, the former first-round pick out of Texas has planted himself back on the NFL map, and Cincinnati couldn't be happier for his revamped dedicatio |

| (MySportsbook) - In their first road trip without injured Pro Bowl linebacker Brian Urlacher, the Chicago Bears are not likely to have many tears shed for them by this week's opponent, the Seattle Seahawks. Seattle, plagued by the injury bug throughout its dismal 4-12 campaign of 2008, is already dealing with an infirmed list that rivals that of the Bears or anyone else in the league, for that matter. The concerns begin on offense, where a team that has already been minus left tackle Walter Jones (knee) a |

The next month, defensive tackle Bryan Pata was murdered hours after a practice, and the Hurricanes finished the season 6-6. Chicago Bears tight end Greg Olsen, who was on that team, said he wants to see Coker get a fresh start and climb back to where he was. ``It was a tough deal,'' Olsen said. ``Obviously he had a lot of success early on. The guys really loved playing for him. We d |

| ND STRAIGHT THRILLER For the second straight week, Pittsburgh Steelers kicker Jeff Reed had the chance to be the hero -- twice. However, this time the veteran couldn't come through and his team was left with a bitter 17-14 defeat at the hands of the Chicago Bears. Reed connected on a game-tying field goal in the fourth quarter in Week 1 versus Tennessee, prior to hitting a game-winning 33-yard kick in overtime. It was the ninth game-winning field goal of his career, including the postseason. However, Reed fa |

And a new one has popped up as well, as the Packers did a woeful job of protecting quarterback Aaron Rodgers for a second consecutive week. In the Pack's Week 1 win over the Chicago Bears, right tackle Allen Barbre took a beating from defensive end Adewale Ogunleye, surrendering a pair of sacks and being routinely beaten on a night when Rodgers was brought down four times and hurried many others.

LAKE FOREST, Ill. (AP) -Chicago Bears defensive end Alex Brown was in the trainer's room instead of a hospital room a day after he limped off the field with a sprained left ankle. Coach Lovie Smith said Brown should be available this week against Seattle, so the Bears were breathing a sigh of relief on Monday. Chicago beat Pittsburgh 17-14 on Sunday thanks to a strong finish by Jay Cutler and a 44-yard field goal by Robbie Gould in the closing seconds. Smith said Brown ``means a lot to our football |

The Colts' most recent visit to Miami came on February 4, 2007, when the historic franchise seized its fourth NFL championship with a 29-17 victory over the Chicago Bears in Super Bowl XLI. The team followed up that monumental win with a pair of postseason appearances in each of the past two years, but underwent a major shift in leadership when highly-successful head coach Tony Dungy announced his retirement in Janua |
