W6vsJaguars: Momentum

    The Bears managed to look better as a team coming back from London with the win against a Jaguars team that could have made the scoreboard look no so much as a blowout but they haven't been able to play a clean game yet. The Bears on the other hand have manage to capitalize from their opponents mistakes, this has given them the opportunities they need to get their offense rolling and clean up Shane Waldron's offense to better adjust to the players strengths.

   The offense still  struggling at the beginning of the game and start clicking in the second quarter on these last games, much of the scoring opportunities come by turnovers or good field position thanks to the defense and special teams but still, the offense is finishing by scoring more touchdowns than field goals or just not going 3 and out as so often happened on past seasons. The existence of a run game has been so pivotal to the success that the offense has gotten, hopefully the Oline will gel more with every game they play, but its a bit too early to tell when the games played until now have not been against balanced teams, still the Jaguars do have a decent group of defensive players, its just that they haven't been playing to expectation.

Upside players: D'Andre Swift has been playing much better, whether its the improved Oline play or the way Waldron has drawn his use. Caleb Williams was impressive on this game, his pocket presence and calm inside the pocket was outstanding on this game.

Downside players: Cheating a bit, Waldron still has work to do, just as he did with Roschon Johnson and Swifts snaps and plays changed to improve the run game, he needs to put his wideouts in the best situation possible get them to block and run the routes they best perform.

   The defense, even without Jaquan Brisker, Kyler Gordon and Tyrique Stevenson, played good enough defense to shut down the Jaguars, they did get help from the Jaguars receivers by droping a pair of touchdown passes, still they Bears defense keeps getting the much appreciated turnovers that help their offense to polish their craft. I cant repeat this enough, this defense is so bend but don't break.

Upside players: Gervon Dexter has been an important piece in this Dline to be an all around player to help the run and put much needed pressure when this does not come from the edges. Kevin Byard has been a silent assassin, he isn't shown much but when he does show up it doesn't end well for offenses.

Downside player: Still need more help on the opposite side of Montez Sweat.

   After the Bears bye, they head to Washington who are as another team that is on the rise, their offense has shown more explosiveness than the Bears, but the Commanders defense has been sus whereas the Bears has been their strength. It has everything to be an entertaining game.
