CHICAGO — In the newspaper business we call it burying the lede, and it occurs to me the media covering the Chicago Bears this past week have been doing a lot of it.
Yes, the injuries to Kevin White and Jerrell Freeman, the star turns taken by Tarik Cohen and Akiem Hicks, the performance of Mike Glennon and the fact the Bears had four chances to beat the Atlanta Falcons from Atlanta’s five-yard line with less than 25 seconds to play were all interesting sidebars from the Bears' 23-17 opening day loss to the defending NFC Champion Atlanta Falcons.
