Streaking/Slumping for Nov. 1
Ben Finfer looks at who was streaking and slumping in Sunday's Bears-Browns game
Bears versus Bengals edition
 |  | Walter PaytonTen years after his death, "Sweetness" is remembered more fondly than ever. A halftime ceremony to mark the anniversary was evidence of that. Also, it should be noted Payton only trails Matt Forte by 408 yards for the team lead in rushing. |
 |  | Tommie HarrisAll talk, very little action. The maligned defensive tackle was as effective as the inactive Jarron Gilbert. And for 10 times the price. |
 | | Jay CutlerHe didn't throw any touchdowns and had another interception. But he showed toughness after taking four sacks and several more hits. He added in a good shouting match with Browns defensive coordinator Kris Kristofferson. |
 | | Offensive LineThey were unable to protect their franchise quarterback from a 32nd-ranked defense. Cleveland's Shaun Rogers ate Cutler for lunch on one hit. Although that's more of snack for the 400-pound defensive tackle. |
 | | Personnel changesJosh Beekman at left guard? Bad. Marcus Harrison at nose tackle? Ineffective. Hunter Hillenmeyer at middle linebacker? Hunter Hillenmeyer at middle linebacker. |
 | | Orange jerseysIt was nice of the Bears to honor the Fighting Illini a day after their upset win over Michigan. |
 | | Devin HesterAnother solid day of receiving with seven catches and 81 yards. Plus he almost scored on two punt returns. Please ignore the fact he was tackled by the punter. |
 | | Third downsDerek Anderson and the Browns were 1-for-11 on third down. Which means Lovie Smith's defense was getting off the field quickly. It also means Anderson stinks. |
 | | Soldier FieldThe seats were filled, the grass looked pristine and the Bears won their sixth consecutive home game. It's a Halloween miracle! |
 | | Cleveland BrownsThe Bears have to find a way to have the divisions realigned so Eric Mangini's pitiful bunch can join the NFC North. They're the Detroit Lions of Ohio. |
