However, Jenner & Block’s report placed Quenneville, Bowman and Cheveldayoff at a May 23, 2010, meeting of senior managers — including then-President John McDonough, Al MacIsaac (removed Tuesday from his role as senior vice president of hockey operations), then-executive vice president Jay Blunk and mental skills coach James F. Gary — to discuss how to handle the allegation against Aldrich.

“This is what he wanted me to do, so if I would have stayed home longer, I would have been going against his wishes,” Giambrone said, “in the sense of, every day when things were still rolling, he kept telling me, ‘Just go back. I’ll be all right.’ And I’m like, ‘Dad, this is a tough situation.’ But that just shows how strong he was and how much he supported me.

You’re taking too much time to get to the point, and that is the Bears are 30th in the NFL in scoring. They have 101 points through seven games, matching where they were at the same point in 2000 and 1997. To find lower scoring outputs for the Bears through seven games, you have to go back to a different era of the NFL: 1980, 1970, 1974, 1979, 1966, 1982, 1967, 1969 and 1975.

“You definitely need everybody,” Peters said. “We lost Elijah Sunday, and that kind of hurt us as a unit. We had a guy step in, LC, that didn’t get no practice at right tackle, and bless his heart, he came out there and struggled a little bit. So with the COVID, a guy catches it, he’s going to be down, next man up. You’ve just got to keep that in mind when you’re out there doing your preparation. You’ve just got to be ready.”
