Chicago Bears running back Matt Forte missed practice yesterday after he experienced a slightly hyper-extended knee during Sunday’s loss against the St. Louis Rams.

Today he returned to practice for Chicago but was listed as limited. Which I completely understand. You want your star running back to remain in the lineup.

Chicago is going to need everybody working together and communicating on the field if they want to defeat Adrian Peterson and the Minnesota Vikings. This team has a tendency of allowing teams who aren’t that great, put up big numbers on their defense.

Their going to need to balance out their offensive game plan. With Forte looking to play through a minor hyper extension, he may be splitting carries with struggling running back Michael Bush.

If I were Marc Trestman, I would try out Michael Ford as their number two back.
