1. The #Bears now rank 31st in the NFL in points scored and total yards.
Only one offense in team history ranked worse. That was in 2004. The Craig Krenzel/Jonathan Quinn/Chad Hutchinson era.
The fact Matt Nagy has managed this with Mitch Trubisky and Nick Foles says it all.

2. In six drafts to this point, Ryan Pace has selected three offensive linemen before the 5th round.
One was off the team after two seasons.
For a guy who talked so much about QBs being vital to success, he's shown incredible negligence in protecting his.

3. In their 10 games this season, the #Bears offense has scored a total of 18 touchdowns.
Ready for this? Ten of those touchdowns came in the 4th quarter. The remaining 8 came in the other three quarters combined.
Translation? When defenses don't play soft, they have no shot.

4. Early reports are Nick Foles didn't suffer a serious injury.
Great news for him.
That shouldn't stop the #Bears from benching him. He just isn't equipped to handle how bad this O-line is.
Mitch Trubisky, for better or worse, is their only option.

5. The Allen Robinson saga was summed up in two moments last night.
His agent ranting on Twitter that the #Bears have no concept of how to use him in the red zone and the man himself whipping his helmet into the bench.
At this point no amount of money will keep him here.

6. Minnesota had a plan on how to expose the #Bears protection issues. Lots of blitzes
While the coaches deserve blame for having zero counters, Cody Whitehair also failed to identify them all night.
Now we know why they tried to get him out of there last year.

7. Bill Lazor was Matt Nagy's final Hail Mary to give the offense some kind of spark.
It didn't work.
Six points and less than 150 total yards against one of the worst defenses in the NFL.
Can somebody explain what the point of Lazor even is on this team?

8. The #Bears defense held Dalvin Cook, the hottest player in the NFL, to 96 yards on 30 carries.
They held an offense that has averaged 28 points over the previous six games to 19.
Anybody who blames them for this fiasco needs to have their head examined.

9. Roquan Smith has 96 tackles in 10 games. That goes along with two sacks.
Jaylon Johnson has 13 passes defended and allowed just 48.1% of passes thrown his way to be completed.
Smith is 23. Johnson is 21.
The future of the #Bears defense isn't nearly as bleak as many think.

10. One has to start wondering if Chuck Pagano is the source of the issue with the pass rush.
Leonard Floyd had 3 sacks last year. He already has 7 this year.
Robert Quinn had 11.5 sacks last year. He only has 1 this year.
There's only one common denominator here. #Bears

11. George McCaskey has never fired a head coach or GM midseason.
Don't expect that to change.
However, there is no denying this. His anger is boiling. Nagy and Pace made promises and failed to deliver.
Their seats are white hot.

12. The #Bears currently still hold the 16th pick in the 2021 draft.
Detroit, Minnesota, and New England all sit ahead of them with 4-5 records.
The Lions play Carolina, Vikings play Dallas, and Patriots play Houston next week.
Chicago could reach the top 13 without playing.
