"While he was playing for Ohio State, Bears rookie Dane Sanzenbacher had seen television highlights of Devin Hester working his magic on the football field, returning kicks and eluding tacklers like a video game icon.

During Sunday's 34-29 Bears victory over the Panthers, Sanzenbacher had the opportunity to watch in person as Hester ran through a maze of tacklers en route to a record-setting 69-yard punt return for a touchdown.

"It's awesome. That's all-time NFL-type stuff there, so you don't get to see it much," Sanzenbacher said of Hester setting the NFL record for punt returns for touchdowns with his 11th."
