Urlacher picking Bears in NFC North
Chicago Tribune

June 16, 2005


Just more than a month before the opening of training camp, Brian Urlacher boldly proclaims the Bears are "the team to beat" in the NFC North.

"I think we are going to be the team to beat. That's the only way to look at it," he said. "We're healthy. Rex Grossman is back. Mike Brown is back. We're jacked. We looked good in practice, flying all over the place. It's an exciting time right now."


The Bears finished 5-11 and in last place last season.

Asked his reaction to future Hall of Fame quarterback Brett Favre returning to the defending division-champion Packers, Urlacher said, "He's not on my team, so I don't really care. I guess it's good for [his] team."

Perhaps he should get his guys "jacked" and shoot for .500 first before saying they will take the North. Even if the Packers are weak, they aren't going to take it from the Vikings.
