CHICAGO - Matt Forte had nowhere to go for much of the night. He was surrounded every time he touched the ball for the Chicago Bears.While Forte struggled for the second straight week, DeMarco Murray found plenty of room to run for the Dallas Cowboys.Forte managed just 26 yards on 13 carries in Chicagos 41-28 loss on Thursday. He also had eight receptions for 74 yards, but most of those gains occurred with the game out of hand in the final quarter.Lack of execution, Forte said when asked about the stymied running game. You know, it would be a missed block here, or blocking the wrong person there. Its many things.Forte matched a career low with five carries for 6 yards in last Thursdays 34-17 at Detroit. The Bears (5- have rushed for just 140 yards in their last three games.We tried to run the football, Chicago coach Marc Trestman said. They certainly were making every attempt to stop the run. There were some run blitzes and some edge blitzes, just to try to knock us off. We missed a couple of blocks along the way, but it was evident.While Forte had few noticeable running lanes, Murray scampered through huge holes on his way to a season-high 179 yards on 32 carries. The dynamic running back also had a team-high nine receptions for 49 yards.Murray put Dallas in front with a 1-yard TD run on fourth-and-goal with 10:50 left in the second quarter. He had 114 yards rushing in the second half alone.I pride myself on starting fast and finishing strong, said Murray, who leads the NFL with 1,606 yards on the ground.Joseph Randle added a 17-yard touchdown run in the third quarter for the Cowboys (9-4), who scored 28 straight points to open a 35-7 lead heading into the final period. Tony Romo was 21 for 26 for 205 yards and three touchdowns.Jay Cutler was 32 of 46 for 341 yards and two touchdowns for Chicago, which has lost five of seven. Martellus Bennett had a career-high 12 receptions for 84 yards and a TD, and Alshon Jeffery finished with six grabs for 95 yards and a score.Brandon Marshalls juggling 42-yard reception set up Bennetts 12-yard score in the second quarter. But Marshall departed with injured ribs after he took a knee to his right side from Barry Church following a big fourth-down reception on the same drive.Marshall left Soldier Field in an ambulance, but a post to his Twitter account thanked fans for their prayers and said he was good.Its a big loss, said Forte, who had a 1-yard TD run and a 2-point conversion in the fourth. Guys got to step up in his place and play, but you know you cant replace a guy like Brandon like that. He was having a good game, too.The Bears got the ball to begin the second half, but Forte lost a fumble and Romo turned the mistake into a 24-yard touchdown pass to Cole Beasley. He then passed to a wide-open Gavin Escobar for a 6-yard score with 8:02 left in the third, increasing Dallas lead to 28-7.The Cowboys stopped a three-game slide against the Bears, including losses in each of the previous two seasons. They also played a night game at Soldier Field last December, with Forte helping the Bears to a 45-28 victory on a brutally cold Monday.Dallas was coming off a 33-10 loss to Philadelphia on Thanksgiving, and it faces the division-leading Eagles again next Sunday in Philadelphia.Its definitely important to come back and get a W, especially after the loss we had last week, said Beasley, who also had a 13-yard touchdown reception late in the first half. Thats the main thing we wanted to do tonight, except we wanted to do it in a little better fashion. We didnt finish as strong as we wanted to.NOTES: The Bears also lost S Chris Conte to a back injury in the third quarter. ... Jay Feely, who signed with Chicago on Wednesday, handled the kicking duties after Robbie Gould was sidelined by a right quadriceps injury.___AP NFL website: www.pro32.ap.org and www.twitter.com/AP_NFL Cheap Basketball Shoes Wholesale .Jeff Green, playing in his second preseason game after missing the first four because of a calf strain, had 18 points. The Celtics (3-3) shot 47.2 per cent from the floor and made 15 of 37 3-point attempts. Wholesalle Basketball Shoes China . Rockhold." Known as an aggressive striker, Belfort (23-10) instead paced himself as the engaged in the early going and showed restraint by not overcommitting against the larger Rockhold (10-2). But when the opportunity presented itself, Belfort delivered an incredible spinning heel kick that landed flush on Rockholds chin and sent him toppling to the floor. http://www.wholesalebasketballshoes.us/ . Its great to be back for another season in Banditland, and Im looking forward to another competitive season with my teammates, said Tavares. Clearance Basketball Shoes . - The Raiders have released guard Mike Brisiel after two disappointing seasons in Oakland. Wholesale Basketball Shoes . It certainly isnt a coincidence that Dwight Howard has scored at least 20 points in each game of the winning streak.When Albert Pujols slugged his 499th and 500th home runs the other night at Washington, he became the 51st player in history to reach that magic figure that in most cases guarantees a player a spot in the Hall of Fame. I dont consider myself to be that old, but I was amazed when I looked at the all-time home run list and realized I had seen 47 of the 51, either in person or on live TV. The ones I wasnt born early enough to see included Mel Ott, number 23 on the list with 511, number 18 Ted Williams at 521, number 17 Jimmie Foxx at 534 and of course the immortal Babe Ruth at number 3 with 714. Of those four, I was even fortunate enough to have seen Williams in person when he and Joe DiMaggio appeared at the 1991 All-Star Game in Toronto. I guess my point is home run hitting beyond a select few didnt really begin to take off until the likes of Willie Mays, Mickey Mantle and Duke Snider took centre stage in the 1950s and then took another quantum leap in the steroid era that began in the late 80s. Two of the greatest hitters of all-time, Ty Cobb and Honus Wagner, hit 103 and 101 home runs respectively in careers that lasted over 20 years apiece. Funny that Wally Pipp, the man Lou Gehrig replaced at first base with the Yankees, hit 90 homers in the Majors. Gehrig, who set the longest consecutive games played streak (until it was surpassed by Cal Ripken Jr.) went on to hit 493 home runs. Pujols was the first player in five years to reach the 500 figure and that made me wonder, who might be next? Then I wondered if Pujols could possibly be the last. I wont likely live long enough to answer that question, but there are still a couple of players who have a shot in the next two or three years if they stick around that long. Adam Dunn, the White Sox prodigious slugger, should reach 500. Hes only 34 and just hit his 445th homer, a monster shot over the scoreboard at Comerica Park this week. Dunn made noises about retiring last season, when the White Sox kept piling up loss after loss. But Chicagos decent start this year and the lure of 500 will probably keep him around for a couple of more seasons. David Ortiz, the face of the Red Sox, is four years older at 38, but he only needs 65 more dingers to reach 500. Hes got a shot. The next group of three falls into the unlikely category. Clevelands Jason Giambi has 438 homers, but hes 43 years old. Dunns White Sox teammate Paul Konerko has 434 but isnt playing much these days and intends to retire at the end of the season. The Yankees Alfonso Soriano like Konerko is 38, but only has 410. He would have to hit 40-45 this year to have a chance. The funny thing is of those five players only Ortiz would appear to have a shot at the Hall of Fame. Konerko is a definite maybe, but the steroid connection could keep Giambi out. Since Dunn was so one dimensional, he could become the first to hit 500 homers who wont make it to Cooperstown. Further down the list you have the Rangers 35-year-old third baseman Adrian Beltre who was 376 homers. Itt could be a stretch for him considering his age and the fact he has already been on the disabled list this season.ddddddddddddTigers mega-star Miguel Cabrera may take another three or four years, but should crack 500. He has 367 now and is only 31. The Yankees Carlos Beltran is only four homers behind "Miggy" at 363, but he is 37. Prince Fielder, who appeared to be a lock a couple of years ago, is sitting on 287 at age 30. Seven more years averaging 30 homers a season and hed have a chance. Incidently, the top active Blue Jays home run hitter is Jose Bautista at 217, followed by Edwin Encarnacion at 196. If I had to bet, Id say Cabrera and Dunn will be the only two to reach 500 in the next two to four years. It could be a long wait, if ever, before it happens again after that. One last note on the chase for 500 homers. Phillies slugging first baseman Ryan Howard reached 100 homers quicker than anyone in history in 2007. Then in 2009 he arrived at 200 faster than anybody else. Now into his fifth season since then, thanks in large part to injuries, his pace has dropped off and hes hit 316 homers. At 34, 500 for Ryan Howard is little more than a dream. The odds of any of us seeing another 300-game winning pitcher are even more remote. The top active pitcher right now is Yankees lefty C.C. Sabathia at 208. Hes 33, but more than that, hes not quite the dominating pitcher he was two years ago and had elbow concerns last year. The Giants Tim Hudson is right behind him at 207 victories, but hes 38. After those two you dip down to the ageless Bartolo Colon of the Mets with 191 victories. The fourth-highest active pitcher in terms of victories is Blue Jays wily veteran lefty Mark Buehrle. At 35, he has 190 victories against 142 losses with a 3.81 ERA. For Hall of Fame voters, 250 victories could become the new 300 in the very near future. Considering his iron man innings stats Buehrle could at least bump himself into the Cooperstown conversation, with another four or five years of 13 or 14 wins. On The Mark Speaking of Buehrle, he takes his 4-0 record into a vital three-game set with Boston this weekend at Rogers Centre. Buehrle will be pitching in the series opener on Friday night against Bosox righty Jake Peavy. The Jays have slipped back to .500 at 11-11 after giving up solid leads at home in their last two games and getting shellacked by Baltimore. The Jays have now fallen to 4-5 at home and 6-7 against the AL East. This three-game set against Boston pretty well completes the first 25 per cent segment against the East. Right now Toronto is sitting in third place, one game up on Tampa Bay and one-and-a-half up on last place Boston. At the very least the Blue Jays need to take two out of three to stop the bleeding before they hit the road for Kansas City and Pittsburgh. Getting swept by Boston could drop the Jays into the cellar and start the same snowball rolling that saw them tumble to 73 and 74 wins the last two seasons.
