Rushing Offense: D

The Bears’ ground game continues to be a mystery as Forte has reached the 100-yard plateau just once during the season. And against the Dolphins, he recorded just 49 yards on 12 carries. While Forte did have some success on Chicago’s first scoring drive in the third quarter, the Bears never did make the run a major part of their game plan.

And when your offense becomes one-dimensional for the most part, you will lose those games more times than not. Taking that into consideration, it should not surprise us that they lost yet another winnable game.
