    The 20 Biggest Baddest Bears of All Time; #10 Clyde "Bulldog" Turner

    No. 10 Clyde "Bull Dog" Turner

    Another nickname that says it all about the type of player Turner was. He played center on offense and a linebacker for the Bears in the ’40s. In addition to those duties, Turner played guard, tackle and eventually saw time at halfback for the Bears during the years they won multiple NFL championships.


    Turner was fast, strong and a tenacious blocker and tackler. Going both ways, he earned his way into the Pro Football Hall of Fame and goes down as one of the toughest players the Bears have known.
    I'm getting to that age where a lifetime warranty just doesn't mean as much to me anymore as an afternoon nap.

    Another Halas favorite from the '40's when the Bears absolutely dominated the league for half a decade. Turner was another throwback to the time before "platooning" became common place and players played both sides of the ball 60 minutes per game.

    He was a dominating lineman and another Bears HOF great.
