For much of the afternoon against the Vikings (-7.5), the Bears looked lost. That might even be an understatement. After Chicago fell behind 21-3 late in the first half, it didn’t seem like much would go right for this rag-tag group.
On offense, Justin Fields and Co. couldn’t muster up much of any consistent positivity or churn. Chicago’s mission to make a simple forward pass look like solving a Rubik’s cube continued. On defense, Kirk Cousins started 17-of-17, and the Bears seemed to somehow forget about covering All-Pro receiver Justin Jefferson downfield … or anywhere on the field.
