BOURBONNAIS, Ill. --?Chicago Bears quarterback Jay Cutler called Matt Forte irreplaceable on Wednesday as the club reported to training camp without the veteran tailback for the first time in nine years.You cant [replace Forte], Cutler said. Just because of his knowledge and him being here so long, plus his experience on the field and his experience playing with me.Forte -- the second-most productive running back in franchise history -- signed a three-year, $12 million contract with the New York Jets in free agency.In somewhat of a surprise move, the Bears made no effort to keep Forte, 30, who spent eight seasons in Chicago, rushing for 8,602 yards and scoring 64 total touchdowns.As a team captain, he led the Bears in rushing last season with 898 yards and caught 44 passes for 389 yards while scoring seven total touchdowns. He ranks second, behind only Hall of Famer Walter Payton, on the Bears all-time lists for rushing yards, yards from scrimmage (12,718), receptions (487) and 100-yard rushing games (24). Hes third in total touchdowns and sixth in receiving yards (4,116).Most of the time Id tell him something or just look at him and hed know exactly what I was thinking, Cutler said. You cant replace him, or you cant replace him in a year anyway.Fortes departure leaves Chicago dependent upon a young group of tailbacks --?Jeremy Langford, Jacquizz Rodgers, KaDeem Carey and 2016 fifth-round pick Jordan Howard?-- to fill the void.Langford tallied 816 all-purpose yards as a rookie, but Chicago is expected to push him in the preseason. Rodgers, Carey and Howard all received significant reps in the Bears offseason program.Chicagos ability to run the football is critical for Cutler, who dramatically reduced his amount of turnovers last year in Adam Gases balanced offense. But Gase left for Miami in January, prompting head coach John Fox to promote former quarterbacks coach Dowell Loggains to offensive coordinator. Loggains is Cutlers sixth different playcaller since 2009.I think a lot of it [reducing turnovers] was the system and the way Adam called plays and manipulated the game in that regard, Cutler said. He definitely took care of quarterbacks and receivers and offensive linemen, and just the way he called games.Dowell has a lot of that same thought process in his mind. Hes going to try as hard as he can not to put us in bad positions. A lot of that is going to help my game as well.Fox feels confident he made the right choice pairing Cutler and Loggains.It was an easy decision for us with Dowell because he had a great relationship with the quarterback, and most offenses work through the quarterback, Fox said. Hes been a coordinator before. Hes very bright. I think Im pretty much 100 percent sure hes going to do just fine. Wholesale Hurricanes Jerseys .

Ballymore Stadium has been reserved for the possible launch of an annual rugby union State of Origin clash between Queensland and NSW.Rugby unions key stakeholders are behind the idea driven by Queensland Rugby Union chief executive Richard Barker and NSW counterpart Andrew Hore.It is designed to give the sport some quality domestic content during Super Rugbys mid-season international break.The Australian Rugby Union, Rugby Union Players Associaton and all five Super League franchises have endorsed it while Wallabies skipper Stephen Moore believes it is a concept worth exploring.There is even the ideal gap at the end of next years June Test window that would make Australias stars available.The match has been tentatively pencilled for Friday, June 30 - a week after Australia meets Italy at Suncorp Stadium in Brisbane.Negotiations are ongoing, but the QRU have taken the additional step of booking Ballymore for that week to ensure the venue is ready to host the match - dubbed State of Union - if it comes off.We think given the unique history of Ballymore that hosting the inaugural game here would addd to the spectacle, Barker told AAP.ddddddddddddWe envisage a festival of rugby that day which would include curtain-raisers that speak to the breadth of our code across all forms of rugby.The response in the rugby community to the concept of State of Union games has been encouraging ...
