Will the Bears Run Offense Be Enough?

Cedric Benson, Adrian Peterson, and Garret Wolff, is that a three headed monster or a train wreck for the bears?

I think the bears made a huge mistake getting rid of Thomas Jones. Between he and Benson, I always thought he was the better back. Benson doesn't have his teammates behind him which could also affect how the running game goes. Peterson is really only a third down back - he won't be the change of pace back that Benson was last year for Jones. Wolff would be a decent return man if you didn't already have Hester. As it is, he just seems too small to be a factor in the NFL (I kinda hope I'm wrong on that one - always like to see the little guy come up big). If the Bears running game is going to have the success it had the last couple of seasons, Benson is going to have to do most of the work himself.

Benson has steadily improved these last two seasons. Although I do believe he can get the job done next season. However the backup running back, whoever it may be has to step up. I did notice that last season. I'd really like to see Devin Hester run the ball a few times per game, other than on the returns.

I think Cedric Benson will have a good season.Im more worried about the Bears pass offence.Rex Grossman needs tto be more consistent.

I hope that the bears have made a good decision going with cedric this year instead of Jones but I know the track record with the bears and some of their decisions are mind boggleing. I don't think that cedric has shown much other than that he can fumble
