| (MySportsbook) - A week ago we wrote about the undefeated Chicago Bears walking into a potential trap game against the 1-6 Miami Dolphins at Soldier Field. This week, we're writing about the one-loss Chicago Bears coming off a trap game loss, after the Dolphins went into Chicago and defeated the NFL's most dominant team (coming into Week 9, that is), 31-13. "Our football team didn't play well, starting with the coaches and going all the way down," said head coach Lovie Smith. Not surprisingly, the questio |

| Lake Forest, IL (MySportsbook) - An MRI on the left foot of Chicago Bears linebacker Brian Urlacher revealed a sprained big toe, the team announced on Monday. Urlacher hurt the foot in the late stages of the Bears' 31-13 loss to the Dolphins at Soldier Field on Sunday, when he tried to bring down Miami running back Ronnie Brown on a rushing play. He limped off the field under his own power, but did not return for the remainder of the game. The sprain is not expected to keep the 2005 NFL Defensive Player o |

| Chicago, IL (MySportsbook) - Chicago Bears wide receiver Bernard Berrian is expected to miss up to four weeks with a rib injury suffered in the team's 31-13 loss to the Miami Dolphins on Sunday. According to a report in the Chicago Sun-Times, Berrian will be sidelined for two to four weeks with the injury. The receiver went down on the Bears' first offensive play of the game after he was tackled following a 10-yard reception. Berrian has caught 27 balls this season and leads Chicago with 495 receiving yar |

Almost nothing was said of the showdown between New York (6-2) and the Chicago Bears (7-1) on Sunday night at Giants Stadium. Coughlin might know by Wednesday whether All-Pro Osi Umenyiora (hip flexor) or fellow defensive end Justin Tuck (foot) will be ready to return after missing the last two games. ``We have to assess this th |

LAKE FOREST, Ill. (AP) -Brian Urlacher walked into a meeting room Monday with no noticeable limp, an encouraging sign for the Chicago Bears, still reeling from their first loss. An MRI exam showed the star linebacker has a sprained big toe on his left foot and not the major injury the team had feared. ``Brian means quite a bit to our football team, so that was cause for concern, but we feel a lot better about it now,'' coach Lovie Smith said Monday. Whether Urlacher will be able to play this Sunday |

LAKE FOREST, Ill. (AP) -Chicago Bears star linebacker Brian Urlacher sprained the big toe on his left foot during a 31-13 loss to Miami. Coach Lovie Smith said Monday the status for the 2005 NFL defensive player of the year is undetermined for Sunday night's game against the Giants. Urlacher suffered the injury in a pileup with just more than a minute left Sunday when the Bears lost for the first time this season after seven straight wins. ``He feels better today and hopefully he'll be able to feel |

INDIANAPOLIS (AP) -Tony Dungy hoped to avoid all those perfect-record questions this year. Not a chance now. Sunday's win at New England, coupled with the Chicago Bears shocking loss to Miami, has Dungy shaking his head as the Colts enter the second half of the season as the NFL's last unbeaten team again. Sure, Dungy is thrilled with an 8-0 record, just not the prospect of facing the weekly scrutiny or circus-like environment that are certain to shift from Chicago to Indianapolis this week as the Col |

All-Pro Osi Umenyiora (hip flexor) and fellow defensive end Justin Tuck (foot) were injured two weeks ago against Dallas and have missed the last two games. New York also faces an NFC showdown with the Chicago Bears (7-1) at Giants Stadium on Sunday night. Adrian Awasom, signed off the practice squad two weeks ago, took over for Strahan on Sunday and finished with two tackles. ``It was a shock,'' Awasom said. ``The coach tells us all the time to prepare lik |
