For years, it has been the Chicago Bears defense that gets the majority of the press. The defense is even stronger than many expected this season—especially in light of the season-ending injury to star linebacker Brian Urlacher—but that doesn’t take away from the accomplishments of the offense this season. Of course, one of the major differences is the addition of new quarterback Jay Cutler. Cutler, however, isn’t the only story. The wide receivers were considered a weakness before the season started, but have since stepped up to show they have what it takes to compete.
Offensive coordinator Ron Turner recently spoke about the offense’s accomplishments and said, “Like I said, we’ve done some good things and we are doing some good things. The next step is to do them more consistently. That’s what we’re looking for. That’s what I’ve talked to the offense about. I don’t think we’ve reached our peak by any means. I think we can get a lot better, and I’m looking forward to that.”
The Bears will be facing off against the Atlanta Falcons this Sunday, which is sure to require a top-notch effort on both sides of the ball. Get your Chicago Bears tickets from StubHub.
