I'm a pretty big fan of Trestman but we have had an extremely conservative offense yet we still make all the mistakes associated with a high risk one

 

You have a moron leading the offense so... Trestman can't keep Jay from making "f*** it I'm Jay Cutler" decisons.

Yep, hard to win with such a bad defense and special teams.

Um...hard to win when your highly paid offense only puts up 24 points (3 in the 2nd half) and turns the ball over what, 3-4 times again?

The defense was easily the strongest part of the team today. I have no clue how you could watch this game and walk away saying the defense blew it. The offense would have scored ~13 points if not for the defense giving them field position and the defense gave up 2 TD that weren't clearly the product of turnovers by the offense.

The defense was mediocre, IMO. Tucker going to the prevent at the end of the half seemed to give Carolina all the momentum. I don't think the prevent defense worked for a single team this weekend in football.

There'll be a little shifting around from other games, but through 5 games, the Bears offense will be in the bottom 1/2 of the league in both yards/game and points/game at the end of this weekend.

 

Their D will be about 20th in yards/game and 23-25 in points/game, both an improvement over last year, and of course the points/game is impacted by things like special teams and turnovers as well.

 

This defense isn't spectacular but it's been upgraded from last year where it was 29th/30th in the NFL in this categories and reached the level it was supposed to reach for that spectacular offense to carry it to a lot of wins.

This team is not supposed to win games on defense. The defense is supposed to not lose games so that the offense can win them. That's how it was built.
