Defense shines at Family Fest practice

A Family Fest crowd of 23,492 watched the Bears defense outperform the offense in a 36-play scrimmage that featured live tackling Saturday at Soldier Field.

In 12 snaps pitting the No. 1 offense against the No. 2 defense, linebacker Mason Foster made a nice stop on running back Jacquizz Rodgers, linebacker Jonathan Bostic forced two incompletions with tight pass coverage and outside linebacker David Bass was credited with a sack of Jay Cutler. The best play by the offense was a completion from Cutler to receiver Eddie Royal.
