08:05 AM ET 10.07 | Few players can compete with Matt Forte's impact on his team's offense, which makes more complicated signing him. [Forte's] agent said it's status quo after four games. "We have received no indication of any change in the stance of the Bears as it relates to their perception -- despite his production -- of Matt's value," agent Adisa Bakari told the Sun-Times. ... Whatever the Bears were willing to pay, the price obviously has gone up. "We've stated from the very beginning that the longer we wait, the more difficult and complicated it becomes," Bakari said. "Matt, to date, is performing at an ultra-elite level, and that's an indisputable reality." What's on the horizon? Here's another sobering reality: This could be Forte's last season with the Bears.

Get over it and go someplace that has a chance to win. They'll never win with Cutler and no receivers

Runningbacks are a dime a dozen in the NFL. No big whoop if he goes somewhere else.

Forte has been a monster for them so far ...if he wants to prove a point maybe he should start a hold out midseason & show the Bears how they would be lacking without him

Good point. Then, after the season and Tiki retires again, he'll criticize Lovie and Cutler and then the Bears will win a superbowl without him.

Fix that line, then plug in a competent RB that doesn't break the bank. That might also add a year or two to Cutler's career. A mixed blessing, I know.

In the end, the Bears know they have to sign or extend Forte. Imagine how much worse that offense would be without him.

Look at how a big multi-year contract improved the performance of Chris Johnson.

Why not? He's their most productive player, and they don't even run the ball much.
