New England Patriots Rex Burkhead (foot) did not play in the teams 33-7 win over the Redskins in Week 5.

Joey C 5 years agoBears Defense Crumbles In London

Joey C 5 years agoMike Davis Has Zero Carries Against Oakland
Chicago Bears running back Mike Davis failed to register a carry in the Bears loss to the Raiders 24-21 in Week 5.

Joey C 5 years agoCordarrelle Patterson Not A Factor Against Raiders
Chicago Bears wide receiver Cordarrelle Patterson carried the ball only once for five yards in the Bears 24-21 loss to the Raiders in Week 5.

Joey C 5 years agoTrey Burton's Stock Continues To Plummet
Chicago Bears tight end Trey Burton caught only three passes for 16 yards in the Bears Week 5 loss to the Raiders in London. Even if backup quarterback Chase Daniel was not under center, Burton simply looks lost in the shuffle on offense. The scheme no longer has Burton as a focal point and the […]
