No one was yelling Super Bowl or bust about the Bears going into this season. They didn’t even have to be good.
In the wake of firing Ryan Pace and Matt Nagy, the bar was at an all-time low for Ryan Poles and Matt Eberflus: Just give some hope that this team is headed the right direction.
Six games in, signs of progress are scant.
Regardless of the outcome against the Commanders on Thursday, this was an uninspiring performance against an awful opponent.
No one figures more prominently in the Bears’ future than Justin Fields, who is already on the clock in Year 2 to prove he can be their franchise quarterback.
