Chicago Bears: How to fix the offensive struggles

The Chicago Bears find themselves in almost dead last for offensive production after two weeks. Fixing their offensive struggles will not be easy, but it can be done and here is how to start moving the needle in the right direction.

If we go back and look at the performance of the offense in Week 1, most Chicago Bears fans would blame Mitchell Trubisky for the failures. Trubisky did not have a good game, but there is plenty of blame to go around regarding that offense.

First, the offensive line played horribly. Trubisky was sacked four times in that game. The pressure that came through the middle of the line was not what I expected to see. Kyle Long, Cody Whitehair and James Daniels had their fair share of miscues. The run blocking was not great either as constant push came up the middle stopping run plays behind the line of scrimmage.

This could be why Nagy basically abandoned the run against the Packers. The Bears threw the ball 45 times in the loss on opening night. Trubisky is not going to succeed this way and his doubters will continue to rally against him with their pitchforks and megaphones. How soon will Bears fans start their tank for Tua hashtags?

Week 2 was unfortunately not much better for Trubisky. However, one drastic difference from Week 1 to Week 2 is that the Chicago Bears came away with a victory. Winning cures all when it comes to sports. More fans will be screaming excitement about Eddy Pineiro‘s game-winning, 53-yard field goal than complaining about Trubisky and the offense.

Despite the win, the Bears offense was anemic once again. Over a span of eight quarters, this Bears offense has only one touchdown. What happened to the explosive offense of Matt Nagy we were promised? Luckily for Nagy, this offense has enough firepower to turn things around. Even better, I am going to lay out the groundwork on how.
