Best Return Man's Effort Wasted

Although the Bears lose again and just as heartbreaking of a loss there could have been this season. Hester’s brilliance as one of the best return men has be cemented that in a flash this player could single handed change an outcome of a game and bring momentum back to the Chicago Bears. Hester had an 89 yard punt return to give the Bears and early7-0 lead and later had a terrific 81 yard catch and run reception with a 1:30 left in the fourth quarter to tie the game. With this returned his 8th touchdown tying a Gayle Sayers’ record, this does not include his two other scores; 108 yard touchdown return of a missed field goal last season and his 92 yard kickoff return in the Super Bowl. Hands down best returner EVER!!!! There were other good performances Griese threw for over 300 yards only the 11th time in Chicago Bears history that a Bear quarterback had thrown for over 300 yards at home. That just shows that since the Sid Luckman era there hasn’t been a good quarterback for my Bears. Benson seemed to turn a corner in this game, finally figuring out home to catch a ball out of the backfield. Although he dropped three other passes he had one of his best receiving games of his career. All in all the Bears played a solid game, except for the big play. All game Peterson had good runs but ways always close to breaking the big one. It was more like break big three Peterson had rushed for 224 yards the most allowed by the Chicago Bears in the 87 year history of the franchise. The door seems to be closing on the Bears this season with their loss to the Minnesota Vikings and a Green Bay Packer win on Sunday. What are they to do when it seems ounce again the stars aligned against a Chicago sports team.
