Bears release preseason schedule

Maybe the Bears will see Jay Cutler in the preseason? If he's with the Denver Broncos.

The Bears have released a list of their preseason opponents. Dates and times will be firmed up later on, probably when the regular-season schedule is announced in the coming weeks.

The Bears will play a nationally televised game at Denver on Aug. 30 as a part of NBC's "Sunday Night Football."

The preseason will begin for the Bears between Aug. 13-16 at Buffalo. The last time the Bears played in Buffalo was in the 2002 preseason.

The first game at Soldier Field will be between Aug. 20-23 vs. the New York Giants.

Then, the Bears play the usually anticipated third preseason game at Denver.

The preseason will conclude with a game at Soldier Field between Sept. 3-6 vs. the Cleveland Browns.

When the preseason schedule is confirmed, the Bears will be able to announce the start of training camp. It opens 15 days before the first preseason game.

This is actually a good idea for a thread. But you're missing one date. Specifically, what is the cutoff date for the players and owners to reach a new agreement, so as to avoid a no-cap season in 2010? As I recall, the date is sometime in March.
