There’s run first and there’s by far leading the league in % of running plays called. Also that stat where the Bears have run the ball 92% of the time in goal to go situations (this was before 3 straight runs so it’s probably more like 94% now)

 

Or are they realizing that the running game is by FAR the strongest part of their team, as currently constructed, and leaning on it. I want to see Fields have a lot more opportunity to learn and show what he can do as much as anyone else... But I can't be mad when they're rushing for over 8 yards a carry any the passing offense has looked LOST

 

The team is constructed that way because they chose to construct it that way.

 

You're not wrong, but there were holes everywhere on the roster they took over with very limited draft capital and a bunch of bad contacts. I'm okay with the moves they made under the circumstances, even if I'd rather see more focus on offensive skill positions

Even beyond level of investment, they chose a lot of run-first players. We were even trading for WRs whose only strength was their run blocking.

Lmao the bears fell on a fumble on the 5 yard line and somehow it squirts free. How the hell does that happen. Back to the practice squad for you Thomas
