The Chicago Bears' first half against the Los Angeles Rams in Week 4 was far from pretty. The offense, once again, failed to string successful plays together on most drives, leading to things stalling out.

While Chicago did take a 10-6 lead into halftime over LA, fans were not happy with how Caleb Williams and co. looked while the Bears' defense held Matthew Stafford and the Rams in check.

And it appears Chicago wide receiver DJ Moore wasn't particularly thrilled with the first half, either.

As Twitter user @jackscroggs_ noted, Moore was notably sitting by himself on the bench during the first two quarters. He also opted to go into the locker room alone instead of with his teammates, which raised some eyebrows.

It's no surprise Moore was frustrated after hauling in just one catch in the first half for the Bears. However, as a veteran and a leader on this offense, this is still a poor look.

While the offense isn't out on the field, he could spend that time getting on the same page with Williams, or with his coaches to figure out how to get the ball in his hands.

Perhaps that's what happened in the locker room during halftime, however, as Moore then went on to log his first touchdown of the season in the third quarter thanks to a 9-yard hookup with Williams.

It's clear this offense still has a ways to go after the hiring of Shane Waldron as the new coordinator and additions of several new weapons like fellow WRs Rome Odunze and Keenan Allen, plus free-agent signing D'Andre Swift.

But despite these troubles, Moore needs to be in the middle of helping solve their problems, instead of showing no interest in righting the ship.
