How to fix the Bears’ defense Posted on November 11th
If probing into the problems of the Bears’ defense is getting redundant, imagine how players and coaches feel watching videotape every Monday after another disappointing defensive effort.
Yes, disappointing is the appropriate word. Who cares if the Bears held the NFL’s third-best rushing team, the Tennessee Titans, to 20 rushing yards Sunday—the franchise’s lowest output in 43 years? It should be noted with an asterisk.
Maybe the Titans couldn’t run on the Bears, or maybe they just couldn’t resist throwing on them the way every team on the schedule has.
In closing one door against the Titans, the Bears opened a gigantic picture window through which the rest of their season must be viewed.
