Plenty of cliches have recently been bandied about Halas Hall relating to the growth of the Bears’ offense as it collectively enters its second year operating Matt Nagy’s system. “Light years ahead,” “night and day,” etc.
Trying to formulate sweeping, far-reaching conclusions out of OTAs — non-padded practices which are strictly regulated under the league’s collective bargaining agreement — is rarely a good idea. The Bears’ offense won’t go from being average-ish in 2018 to great in 2019 based on a 10 practices in May and June that aren’t considered "real football," as some coaches call it.
But as it relates to Mitch Trubisky, there is some value in dissecting in how he’s “light years ahead” in his knowledge of the offense, and how his operation of it is like “night and day,” as various coaches put it this week.
