The GREAT Cedric Benson adds to his list of failures with the Chicago Bears.  Benson was arrested for drunken driving of a boat. To compound things, Benson resisted arrest and had to be PEPPER sprayed. http://sports.yahoo.com/nfl/news?slug=ap-bears-

                Benson has been nothing but a BUST since the Bears drafted him with the fourth overall pick in the 2005 draft. Benson was a workhorse in college at Texas, and been nothing but WORTHLESS with the Bears. This arrest helps Benson reach the low point in a career of low lights. Benson failed to beat out Thomas Jones in 2005, he also injured his leg. In 2006, Benson rushed for 647 yards and 6 touchdowns; however, Thomas Jones was the feature back that season.

                In his first full season as the feature back, Benson rushed 674 yards, 4 touchdowns and average 3.4 yards per carry. The Bears were at the bottom of the league in rushing. Benson suffered a season ending injury against the Seattle Seahawks in Week 11. Reports out of Halas Hall state that Benson’s injury was worse than reported; a local Chicago radio station also reports that Benson HAS NOT been diligent in his rehab.

                The Bears have so little faith in Benson, that they selected his replacement in the 2nd round of this year’s draft.  Matt Forte, out of Tulane, will be the starting running back this season, with Adrian Peterson being the backup.
