Welcome to another edition of Opposition Research, where I’ll be taking a look at the next Packers opponent, the Chicago Bears (2-0). Before the season started, I’m not sure if there was a team I was less sure about. Could Cutler adapt to a new scheme? Could Peppers be the key defensive ingredient? Or are Lovie Smith and the Bears just clinging desperately to unrealistic hopes of mediocrity? Heading into a game that decides the early lead in the divisional race, I’m still not sure I have any answers. What I do know, however, is that this game is going to be explosive.
The Chicago Bears used their 2011 seventh-round pick to select BYU running back Harvey Unga in today's 2010 NFL Supplemental draft. University of Illinois defensive lineman Joshua Price-Brent was selected by the Dallas Cowboys, also in the seventh-round.
Former Chicago Bears tight end Gabe Reid was awarded $325,000 in workers' compensation in the state of Illinois, Fred Mitchell of the Chicago Tribune reports.
