RB Matt Forte seemed a shoo-in for a 2,000-yard year rushing
and receiving, but as things have gone South for the Bears, that
seems less and less likely. With 55 rushing yards and 40 yards
on six catches Sunday, Forte is at 1,772 with one game
remaining. He has 987 yards rushing and 785 receiving.
QB Jimmy Clausen's first start in four years appeared to be good
enough to earn him another shot next week when the Bears finish
at Minnesota, but coach Marc Trestman, who seemed generally
pleased with the performance, did not make it official. He said
he would announce his starter early in the week, however. Last
week, it was not before Wednesday that a decision leaked out.
