Bears RB David Montgomery enters contract season with opportunity for breakout year

LAKE FOREST, Ill. – Chicago Bears coach Matt Eberflus has a penchant for acronyms. He has one for on-field execution – HITS (hustle, intensity, takeaways and (playing) smart) – and he has one for the traits of the players he hopes to have on the roster.

The latter is referred to as M&M. Having a great motor and being mean are the types of qualities Eberflus expects from his offensive and defensive linemen. But as the first-year head coach started to learn more about his personnel this offseason, he extended that classification to include running back David Montgomery.
