Last week, despite the winning the game, the Bears’ defense surrendered 439 yards to the Minnesota Vikings. "Our defense played horrible," defensive end Alex Brown said. As you can see from the injury report, the Bears have had injuries in the secondary, but the defense was shaky before they got hurt. Pro Bowlers Tommie Harris and Brian Urlacher have struggled this season, and they hope to get Vasher and Tillman back this week.
