Three months ago, it was nothing short of amateurish. The Chicago Bears offensive line made quarterback Jay Cutler look like the helpless warden in a B-movie prison break.
The low point game came in a prime-time showdown at the Meadowlands when the New York Giants sacked Cutler nine times in the first half before knocking him out with a concussion. The next week, backup Todd Collins was sacked five times in a 20-point victory over Carolina. Cutler returned in Week 6 and was thrown down a combined 10 more times the next two games, both losses, as the Bears dropped to 4-3.
But something happened.
Actually, a few things did. Most notably, Bears offensive line coach Mike Tice made some personnel changes, offensive coordinator Mike Martz made some philosophical ones and now Chicago (12-5), winners of eight of the last 10, will host the hated Green Bay Packers (12-6) for the NFC championship Sunday at Soldier Field.
