Here's a pretty good article on how broken tackles were broke down in the NFC North.
Interesting points involving Bears players: Lance Briggs was tops in the Division for missing tackles, but I would attribute that to how many opporunties he gets when he gets there and not more so of a problem.
Perhaps even more interesting is that Matt Forte was second behind AP(duh) in broken tackles with 28 and as Kevin Seifrat points out might be a problem with our play calling and blocking scheme rather than Matt Forte for his low yards per a carry.
