Bears Lose 9er Shoot-out 38-42

Bears’ D still as awful as it was pre-bye, and even a pick-6 wasn’t enough to mask it.

Dline pushed around. Bad angles. Slow recognition. Loose coverage.

Pass rush non-existent, and run defense a sieve.

Only thing that slowed down 9ers was their INJs.

It’s hard to imagine this team getting to SB with such a sub-par defense, but one must also remember that the Bears were, again, a throw away from stealing a victory against an 11-win team competing for the #1 seed at their house.

Gotta trust that both Ben Johnson and more specifically Dennis Allen can learn from the beating and adapt.

If not, it’ll be a short playoffs.
