Rich Campbell: In Bears' kicker search, the destination justifies the journey. But can the team find its way?
CHICAGO - The Bears arrive at their third preseason game Saturday still wandering through the forest in search of a reliable kicker.
Their map - questionable to begin with - is tattered. Their canteen is dry. All the thorny bushes, poison ivy and dead ends on this seven-month trek have taken a toll.
But the Bears cling to hope because there is no alternative and because the Packers come to town in two weeks.
In this wilderness, they've committed their fate to one compass for the time being: Follow the ball off Eddy Pineiro's strong right foot.
