Anyone who saw that return in the pro bowl....Weren't the Bears going to put him on offense during the year? Or was that some kind of rumor? After that return...holy crap...that looked like Reggie Bush....

No, it wasn't a touchdown...but it was like a 70 some yard return before TOMLINSON got him...he faked out Troy Polamalu twice on the return as he was spinning and breaking tackles....it'll be on Sports Center...

Yeah, I think putting him in as CB was a mistake.
Unless he was in as RB, I don't think he'd be good on offense. He didn't work out as WR in college because he didn't have the greatest hands ---guys who are return specialists are there because they are physically gifted enough to juke guys out after they start out with the ball (I'll assume they catch it and don't fumble) and are already in open field. Dante Hall is an awesome return man, one of the best, but he's 3rd string WR.....behind Sammie Parker and Eddie Kenison!!
guy below me --no, but he returned it 63 yards and juked alot of guys out (didn't get as good as blocks as he gets w/Da bears)

No, He should only play special teams. If he would play anywhere on the field it would be DB, and as he has showed (vs Reggie Wayne & Torry Holt) he is avrage. He is an extreamly dangerous return man. He gets 5-9 toutches per game which keep him fresh and able to change the game at any time. While it is a good idea, he should remain on special teams.

I don't know about offense.He should stick to special teams.He's just an amazing returner.Even though he doesn't return it every time he returns it far,and I'm not a Bears fan.

I think that the Bears should give him a shot to play some offense. He is an incredible runner. Why not give him a chance. GO BEARS!!

I agree as long as he doesn't cover again. Did you see him get beat by Reggie Wayne on the 72 yard TD?
Deja Vu Bears Fans?
Go Colts!!!!!!!!!!

They could actually use him at running back for certain plays, (pitch to the outside, reverses, etc...). I don't think his hands are the best in the world, so receiver may not work.

Tried that at Miami, didn't work out too well...couldn't catch too well...couldn't hang on to the ball when he did.
