Nick Foles has been the Bears’ starting quarterback for two full games and three whole practices.
All three came before the Colts game. On a short week before their “Thursday Night Football” win against the Buccaneers, the Bears held only walk-throughs. After taking the weekend off, they had another walk-through Monday, wanting to keep their practice squad at home after one of their own, offensive lineman Badara Traore, tested positive for the coronavirus.
When the Bears bemoan a lack of detail and stress the need to “calibrate” their offense, they know the time for that to happen is during practice, not on the sideline during game day.
