Re-watching Bears games hasn’t been nearly as torturous the last few weeks.
Their recent film has been full of fresh ideas and variety, as opposed to the continuous slog that preceded it — not just during the six-game losing streak, but even in their 5-1 start. Their 33-27 win over the Vikings on Sunday was far from a masterpiece, but it was intriguing.
Most of the entertainment has been on offense lately, and the Bears are finally making headway with their ground game and a lot of short, roll-out passes. But it wasn’t all dink-and-dunk. Quarterback Mitch Trubisky had some big plays, too.
