Snap judgment: Surprise playing time split among Bears wide receivers vs. Lions

One of the many puzzles Bears coach Matt Nagy needed to solve going into the season was how he would set up the hierarchy of his skill players. It’s the essential question of who he wants to prioritize in the offense, and in the 27-23 win over the Lions, it was wide receiver Allen Robinson (nine targets, one rush), running back David Montgomery (13 rushes, three targets) and running back Tarik Cohen (seven carries, two targets).

That said, Anthony Miller was the star in the passing game with four catches for 76 yards and a touchdown. It was a top-five game in his young career.
