The Bears have the most unprepared offense in the NFL. There’s no other way to interpret their incompetence at the start of games.

The Bears are the league’s worst team on their first drive, averaging just 11.9 yards — almost half the next-closest team and one-quarter of the league-leading Chiefs through 16 weeks. They’ve scored just twice on their first possession, the lowest number in the league. They’re one of three teams to not score a touchdown on the first drive — Thursday night’s opponent at Soldier Field, the Seahawks, are another.
