Good to see Ced Benson tearing it up. Can't figure da Bears out..... Ced can't do anything right there, moves on to Cincy and becomes a monster.

How about Cutler? The guy made the Pro Bowl in Denver and he looks awful this season. A lot of it is a terrible offensive line. But for Benson, he had bad work habits when he was in Chicago and didn't produce. The Bears had no need to draft Benson because they had Thomas Jones. I do think it dawned on Benson that if he didn't get his act together, he'd be finished.

As for Rice, he's got a shot. He missed some carries earlier in the year when he was splitting time with McGahee. Depending on how the last 6 games goes, Rice could still earn a Pro Bowl berth. But I don't see a scenario, other than season ending injury, in which Johnson or Jones-Drew would be overtaken.
