History Repeats Itself

Man, this seems like the typical offseason following a fluke Bears run. Football publications assuming the Bears would repeat their magical run and win the division again, major parts of the defense not receiving contract extensions and now this. Hey Angelo, does the name Bryan Robinson ring a bell? Signing mediocre players to long term contracts may fool many Bears fans into thinking you care about keeping the defense together. When Lance Briggs leaves next offseason because you're not willing to pay the big bucks to keep him, at least we'll have a slow white linebacker who makes one big play a season.
