Windy City Gridiron
The Bears continued their winning ways on Sunday, defeating the Steelers 31-28 in a tight matchup that saw Chicago improve to 8-3 in front of their home crowd.
As the close score and high-scoring point would leave one to believe, it wasn’t a flawless performance from the Bears by any means in Week 12. The run defense struggled to stop plays outside of the tackles, the coverage was inconsistent, and the passing attack didn’t complete enough attempts. That said, the deep ball was still pretty efficient, the offensive line had a great outing, and two key turnovers helped them capitalize on their defense’s inconsistency against Pittsburgh.
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.
