Bears Likely To Add A Running Back To Complement Matt Forte

According to beat writer Jeff Dickerson, the Bears want to add a running back with "a little juice" to pair with Matt Forte this year. Forte can be somewhat forgiven for his disastrous 2009 season due to the hamstring and knee injuries in addition to an abysmal offensive line. He is lacking in big-play ability, however, so the Bears will explore upgrades on Kevin Jones and Kahlil Bell as a complement to their starter.

I guess having three 1,000 yard rushers in the last 5 seasons doesn't even matter then.

drafting chris williams (a pass protector) and making him play RT was stupid...hes weak in the run game, you need power on the right side and finesse on the left

Chris Williams will only get better with experience. Yeah, he has little of it but give him time.

Then you have any other ideas who to stick at RT in the place of Chris Williams besides Orlando Pace?

no, but i think at this stage of paces career he would have been better at RT and let williams learn the LT position....the man allowed like 2 sacks in 4 years in the SEC at LT, he should be playing his natural position while pace is running on fumes
