My major concern is the Saints offensive line controlling the game over the Hicks-less Bears defense.  Looks like Cook and Kamera could be out but if that line is clicking Latavius Murray is just as effective as a runner (though not so much as a receiver). 

Well, actually my real major concern is whether Trubisky is healthy - Bears sure could use our TE Burton to emerge.

I think we all have come to the conclusion we need to vast improvements on offense - including the play calling.

Heard Harry Hiestand Bears O line coach saying yesterday it's a matter of the O line playing together....not unhappy with any of them.

Not as down on the play calling as some.  Bears offense just doesn't have a lot of big plays.  Longest pass play from scrimmage is just 37 yards.

Bears need to open up the offense and get those DBs off our receivers - may also open up the run game.

Yep...including throwing the ball down field more. I guess they have but not completed many - I can think a few to Miller, Cohen, Gaberiel that were not completed

It's hard to have big plays when pass plays are to the line of scrimmage.

Not too concerned about the D. The O? They have looked like crap.. I pin a lot of this on the lack of play during preseason. That is when the O-line should be working to get their groove on. Not the 6th game of the season..

As I the true genius predicted, Bars has been put on the roster.  Hiestand said he's improved through weightlifting enough to play.

Heck maybe they'll put him in place of Leno like pre season.

Bars held his own at LT in preseason, but its hard to gauge his ability based on the level of performance he faced.  I did notice his drive - the guy kept going after it.

If Coward and Bars can produce Bears should be in good shape going forward the next few years. 

And I think Leno will turn it around - can't explain this funk he's going through right now but he's been very solid for several years now.

Right up until he got paid.  Money sometimes changes people.  I hope I am wrong on this one.

Leno got his extension before the 2017 season and made the pro bowl since.  The "he sucks after he got paid argument" is one of the laziest and most ignorant sports trope one can revert to.
