Jerry Angelo did his weekly chat on the Chicago Bears official website on Wednesday.   Some interesting nuggets coming out of the interview.  Let’s see if we can read between the lines

Changes are Coming for Bears

It would be crazy if the Bears didn’t make some changes after the Benson Bowl-over last Sunday.  As the Bears start to prepare for the Browns, there’s all kinds of news coming in from Halas Hall today.
