LAKE FOREST, Ill. -- Brian Hoyers three straight 300-yard passing efforts suggest the quarterback position for the Chicago Bears is in good hands until quarterback Jay Cutler returns from a thumb sprain.Inconsistency in other areas continues to plague the Bears (1-4) following their 29-23 loss Sunday at Indianapolis.Linebacker Willie Young said coach John Fox addressed the issue in talking with players ahead of a home game Sunday against Jacksonville.Just to sum up his message to the team is that were so close, Young said. I guess every game, wins or losses, come down to a few plays. And to see how close we are is a lot of motivation to see that maybe if we can just avoid having this mistake, this offsides penalty, this dropped ball.Hoyers season passer rating climbed to 108.5 against the Colts, though he missed seeing wide receiver Alshon Jeffery open in the end zone on the Bears final offensive play, an incompletion. The Bears offense produced 522 yards, its most for a game since Mike Ditkas 1989 team. But the offense sputtered in the red zone with one touchdown in three tries.Wide receiver Cameron Meredith filled in well for injured Kevin White with nine catches for 130 yards, then fumbled the ball in the fourth quarter.I think weve gotten betetr at moving the ball offensively, distributing it, Fox said. I think our timings been better. All in all, though, we still need to capitalize on more points.Fox said he has no timetable yet on when or if Cutler will be back.Right now, thats not a reality, so I dont like to get too much into that, Fox said. But I think Brians played well. Unfortunately, we didnt play quite well enough.Fox chastised the media for questioning whether Hoyer should have thrown the final pass Jefferys way instead of incomplete to Meredith.It could have been an option, he said. I dont know that you can be super-critical. When youre out there playing quarterback it looks a little different than when youre up in the press box having hot dogs.The Bears defense hampered the Colts running game and at times harassed quarterback Andrew Luck. The defense had five sacks, but Luck still threw two touchdown passes and led the victoryOur mindset was made up by how we wanted to get to the quarterback and thats what we all sold out to do that, Young said. And from this point on, weve just got to be consistent in doing it.Game notes The pass rush could get better if Pernell McPhee returns from the physically unable to perform list. McPhee has been out with a knee injury However, Fox said that wont occur until the week of the Oct. 22 Green Bay game at the earliest. McPhee can begin a three-week evaluation process at practice starting this Friday.---Online:AP NFL website: www.pro32.ap.org and www.twitter.com/AP-NFL Fake Vapormax For Sale . -- Bobby Ryan helped the U.

Nine days before the opening ceremony, organizing committee chief Dmitry Chernyshenko said Wednesday that Sochi is "fully ready" and will deliver safe, friendly and well-run games that defy the grim reports that have overshadowed preparations. CORVALLIS, Ore. -- Oregon State was feeling pretty good after Darrel Garretsons 16-yard touchdown run in overtime.It ended OSUs 12-game Pac-12 losing streak and including several rushing marks that landed into Oregon States record book.But second-year coach Gary Andersen wanted the Beavers (2-3, 1-1) to keep Saturday nights 47-44 win over California in perspective.Its a win in the Pac-12, obviously, Anderson said. It hasnt happened in a long time. So it should give them an understanding of what it takes to win a game in the Pac-12.I dont know if its a program-defining moment. I wouldnt necessarily say that. I expect those to be down the road.Garretsons game-winner was practically a walk to the end zone during the final 10 yards, but the outset of the play was hair-raising. Garretson bobbled the center snap, but quickly recovered, cut to his right and sprinted to the end zone to put away California (3-3, 1-2).Thank God I had that left glove on. These guys are giving me (a hard time) about it because its a linemans glove, but it is what it is, and it stuck, so were good, Garretson said.It was fitting that Oregon State won the game on a running play, because the Beavers ran over California most of the night.Ryan Nall ran for 221 yards and three touchdowns but left the game early in the fourth quarter with a leg injury. Garretson rushed for 105 yards and two touchdowns and completed 13 of 24 passes for 85 yards.Oregon State ran for 474 yards, a school record against a Pac-12 opponent. The Beavers had a season-high 559 yards, though it almost wasnt enough, as they blew a 17-point, fourth-quarter lead.Davis Webb threw for 113 yards, well under his season average of 428.6 passing yards, for California (3-3, 1-2). Khalfani Muhammad ran for 165 yards and a touchdown while Tre Watson had 134 yards and two touchdowns.But the poor run defense and lack of offense for much of the game -- 180 yards through three quarters -- left Cal coach Sonny Dykes perplexed.Our guys fought hard in the second half, but it was too little, too late, Dykes said. I tolld them guys, I didnt think we deserved to win.dddddddddddd. We sleepwalked through the first half, for sure.Nall ripped off runs of 80 and 62 yards during the third quarter as Oregon State increased its lead to 34-17. Artavis Pierce scored on a 2-yard run that made it 41-24 with 10:35 left when it began to unravel.California trimmed the deficit to 41-38 with 2:41 left and Matt Andersons 29-yard field goal with five seconds remaining sent the game into overtime.OSUs defense forced a three-and-out by California in overtime, and Anderson kicked a 39-yard field goal to set the stage for Garretsons game-winner.The defense studded up and made them kick a field goal. We made the play we needed to make to win the game, Andersen said.THE TAKEAWAYCALIFORNIA: The Bears lost their seventh consecutive road game, and it wont look pretty on video next week. The Pac-12s worst rushing defense continued to struggle, giving up an average run of 10.1 yards to Oregon State.OREGON STATE: The Beavers rank No. 100 or lower in rushing, passing and total offense nationally, but didnt look the part in the first half when they scored on their first three drives. Led by the bruising runs of Nall, Oregon State also scored on its first four drives of the second half.NALL APPEARS OKNall said he reinjured his foot early in the fourth quarter, an injury hes been dealing with this season. Andersen said he expects Nall, whose 221 yards was a career high and 10th best in Oregon State history, will be ready to play next Saturday against Utah.When Nall left in the game with 11 minutes remaining, he was within 18 yards of the Reser Stadium record of 239 rushing yards, set by Steven Jackson.UP NEXTCALIFORNIA: The Bears get a bye next week as they prep for a Friday, Oct. 21 home game against Oregon, a wounded opponent on a four-game losing streak.OREGON STATE: The Beavers remain in Corvallis and cap a two-game home stand against Utah next Saturday.
