Top 10: 100-yard rushing games
Just 12 games into his rookie season, Jordan Howard has already cracked the Bears' top ten list for career 100-yard rushing games.
1 / 11
- (tie): Jordan Howard (5). The rookie fifth-round pick opened the season third on the depth chart and has since topped 100 yards in five of nine starts.
2 / 11
- (tie) Beattie Feathers (5). All five of his 100-yard games came when Feathers was a rookie in 1934, when he became the NFL's first 1,000-yard rusher.
3 / 11
- Rashaan Salaam (6). The 1994 Heisman Trophy winner, who passed away earlier this week, had five 100-yard games as a Bears rookie in 1995.
4 / 11
- Raymont Harris (8). The "ultraback" was one of the few bright spots on a 1997 Bears team that went 4-12, amassing five 100-yard games.
5 / 11
- Anthony Thomas (10). The "A-train" hit the ground running with four 100-yard games as a rookie in 2001, including outings of 188, 173 and 160 yards.
6 / 11
- (tie) Rick Casares (13). Casares played with the Bears from 1955-64 and was the franchise's all-time leading rusher with 5,657 yards until Walter Payton broke his record.
7 / 11
- (tie) Thomas Jones (13). Jones rushed for at least 100 yards in six of eight games during one stretch spanning the 2004 and 2005 seasons.
8 / 11
- Neal Anderson (14). The Bears went 10-4 in Anderson's 100-yard games, which came in five different seasons from 1987 through 1993.
9 / 11
- Gale Sayers (20). The "Kansas Comet" had at least three 100-yard games in each of his first five seasons with the Bears from 1965-69.
10 / 11
- Matt Forte (24). Forte topped 100 yards in four of five games midway through the 2011 season and in three straight contests in 2013.
11 / 11
- Walter Payton (77). That's not a typo; Payton's 77 100-yard games rank second in NFL history, one behind Emmitt Smith and one ahead of Barry Sanders.
