Windy City Gridiron
The Bears’ five-game winning streak came to an end on Sunday with their 28-21 loss to the Packers. Though Chicago stills sit at 9-4, they are no longer in first place of the NFC North and find themselves a game away from being on the outside looking in on the playoff race.
That goes to show just how competitive the NFC is this year, more than anything. The Bears started off slowly in Week 14, as they face constant pressure off the edge on offense, particularly over Darnell Wright’s side of the ball. That, among other factors, made it tough for the offense to put anything together in the first half. Things improved in the second half, however, and it brought them one play away from tying the game. In the end, an interception in the end zone on 4th-and-1 sealed the deal.
As I did all of last year, I will be publishing five scouting reports on the performance of Bears players that fans want to hear about the most. All five of these scouting reports will go up on my Patreon every week as soon as I have finished breaking down the All-22 tape. You can join as a subscriber and receive all of my exclusive Bears and NFL Draft content for as low as $1 a month, or you can buy individual scouting reports for $4 each as you see fit.
Like last year, I will post one of my five scouting reports for free here on Windy City Gridiron for every game the Bears play. This week, I broke down the tape of the following players:
