    Bears coach Lovie Smith said quarterback Todd Collins ''did some good things'' Sunday. After throwing four interceptions, including one on third-and-goal at the 1, having two passes batted at the line of scrimmage, overthrowing open receivers downfield, getting sacked twice, throwing six passes that neither team caught and getting pulled in the third quarter with a 6.2 passer rating for the game and 0.0 on third downs, even Collins probably would like to know what those good things were. ''It was probably my worst game ever, since I've been playing any sport,'' the 38-year-old Collins said. ''It's not like it was a surprise gettig pulled. It's disappointing. But I was most disappointed in how I played.'' After Jay Cutler suffered a concussion against the New York Giants last week that forced him to miss Sunday's game, Smith and offensive coordinator Mike Martz turned to the veteran Collins over Caleb Hanie. But even with a conservative game plan loaded with running plays that worked to near perfection in the first quarter -- Matt Forte had touchdown runs of 18 and 68 yards in the first 7:25 of the game -- Collins was either so rusty or so ill-prepared he could not avoid disaster. He completed 6-of-16 passes for 32 yards, four interceptions and a career-low 6.2 rating.

    The only good thing Todd Collins did was no bad handoffs to Matt Forte. Other than that, I hope Caleb Hanie starts this sunday if Cutler can't go.

    as i said before the game, just having todd collins under center made this a dangerous game for the bears. i think if they had been playing anyone OTHER than the hapless panthers, collins would have lost the game for them.
