With Matt Forte injured, the Bears turn to rookie running back Jeremy Langford -- the first Forte backup to start a game in three seasons. We take a look at Forte's backups since his first career game in 2008, because we're masochists, and we need to know.
Matt Forte likely would have won the Bears starting running back spot even if Cedric Benson hadn't gotten arrested twice in 35 days for DUI, once by land, once by sea. But it definitely moved things along.
Arrest #1 came on Benson's motorboat, the first Saturday of May 2008, seven days after the Bears used a second-round pick on Forte.
