Bears WR Hester expects cooperation with new coordinator

The Chicago Bears wide receiver Devin Hester is expecting to work with new coordinator Mike Martz, who may help the Bears improve their offense. Being known for his offense that puts up big numbers in the passing game, Martz was hired by the Bears earlier this month.

"That’s a guy a receiver would love to work with, the type of coach who spreads the receivers out," Hester told the Chicago Sun-Times. "If he brings that offense he had in St. Louis, we’re going to be a tough team to beat."

Martz seems to have the same expectation, saying that he likes what he sees of the Bears’ receiving unit, which has been maligned but has potential up-and-comers in Johnny Knox and Devin Aromashodu.

Although the unit is in lack of experience, Martz believes that there’s plenty of talent there. He indicated that he could use Hester in the slot. And he is also expecting a lot from the Bears quarterback Jay Cutler, who had failed to meet expectation since taking off his Denver Broncos jersey to become a Bears quarterback.

WR Burress will likely find friendship in Bears

Although it has not been comfirmed which team will sign the free-agent, the Bears players has approved their interest in working with WR Plaxico Burress.

It was reported recently by the Chicago Sun-Times that Devin Hester, likely one of the players who would be most affected by a Burress coming, was ready to welcome the former Giant. He was confident that by signing Burress will improve the team a lot. He also said it would not be difficult for Burress to adapt himselt to the Bears rules.

The Bears is one of the two teams who showed interest in signing Burress openly, the other are the Jets.
