Future looks bright in Windy City After finishing 1998 at 4-12, many viewed this year's 6-10 campaign as a success. Dick Jauron is not one of them. "There's not a whole lot you can say when it ends like this, except that it's not an acceptable way to end a season. We don't want to end 6-10," Jauron said. "But I think we took some steps in the right direction." The expectations in Chicago are high heading into next season. With an exciting group of young offensive players -- a list that includes Cade McNown, Marcus Robinson and Curtis Enis -- Bears fans have something to be excited about. "We're a lot closer than people may think or it may appear," defensive tackle Mike Wells said. "We're disappointed with the way the season ended, but we also see where we're going. We feel like we're coming together as a team. We have the potential for a great future." ... Running back Curtis Enis has a slightly torn rotator cuff in his left shoulder. The Bears said Tuesday that Enis' rehabilitation will take two to three months. Enis, who missed the last seven games of the 1998 season after he ripped up his left knee, came back this season to run for 916 yards. He did, however, finish with a total of 1,256 yards from scrimmage, 10th best in the NFC. ESPN.com **************************************************************************** Drafting a plan As Bears' players enjoy the playoffs on TV, management is already figuring out how to get the team there next year. Chicago, which has the ninth pick in this year's draft, has begun its preliminary search on whom to select. "It's not a real deep draft," personnel director Mark Hatley said. "I think there are going to be quite a few quality players, and obviously it'll depend on what juniors come out." A number of 1999 Bears picks saw significant time this season including QB Cade McNown, WR Marty Booker and LB Warrick Holdman. NFL.com

Marcus Robinson has signed a new four-year deal. LAKE FOREST, Ill. (Feb. 3, 2000) Emerging star Marcus Robinson, who ranked second in the NFC in receiving yards and fifth in catches in 1999, signed a four-year contract with the Chicago Bears. In just his second NFL season, Robinson flourished under offensive coordinator Gary Crowton's system and became the Bears' primary receiver ahead of Bobby Engram and Curtis Conway, totaling 84 receptions for 1,400 yards and nine touchdowns. He finished just 13 yards behind Minnesota's Randy Moss for the NFC lead and 12 catches behind Carolina's Muhsin Muhammad for the conference high. The NFL Europe League MVP in 1998, Robinson led the Bears in receiving yards each week from Oct. 10-Nov. 25 and 11 times overall. He had career highs with 11 catches for 170 yards and three touchdowns on Dec. 19 in a 28-10 win over Detroit. The 6-foot-3 Robinson had five 100-yard receiving games, recording at least 136 on each occasion. He went for 163 on Nov. 21 in a 23-20 overtime win over San Diego. A fourth-round pick out of South Carolina, Robinson missed his entire rookie season in 1997 with a thumb injury and had just four catches in 1998. He helped Rhein to the NFL Europe title that spring, leading the league with 811 yards receiving. nfl.com
