Happy Birthday, Lance Briggs! You tackled birthdays just like you did running backs—relentlessly and with style. Seven straight Pro Bowls from 2005 to 2011? Clearly, candles aren't the only thing you've blown away over the years.Thanks for leading our beloved Bears all the way to Super Bowl XLI in '06; your fierce defense made Sundays unforgettable (and quarterbacks uncomfortable). May this birthday be as legendary as your hits on game day—and may no cake ever escape your grasp quite like opposing offenses couldn't evade yours!
Here's wishing a linebacker whose legacy never ages another year of greatness ahead!
