The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly From the Bears Loss to the Indianapolis Colts
The Chicago Bears continue to be a work in progress offensively.
As I usually do, I spent much of this morning re-watching the Bears game. While I was doing so, I came across this line, which seemed as damning as it gets for the Chicago Bears offense:
“Right now, the quarterback is surviving on his own.”
The line is from Mike Sando’s Pick Six column at The Athletic. It’s a quote from an evaluator who calls Shane Waldron the worst offensive coordinator in the NFC North. It implies that Williams is just surviving despite Waldron’s perplexing offensive concepts through the first three games.
“The Bears’ problems, in my opinion, start with the offensive line and the construction of it,” an evaluator said. “Then it’s Waldron, especially when you look at the other coordinators in the division. He is clearly fourth. The head coach is fourth. Right now, the quarterback is surviving on his own.”
I have thoughts on that evaluation, the coordinator, and the head coach, but let’s start with some positives. As much as Sunday seemed like doomsday, there were some positives.
