 Passing Offense: C-

Chicago’s aerial attack left a lot to be desired to put it mildly. Jay Cutler completed 17 of 27 passes for a pedestrian 130 yards. In addition to that, only five of those passes went for more than 10 yards and the team averaged just 3.7 yards per pass play.

Martellus Bennett led the team with four receptions for 37 yards while Brandon Marshall and Alshon Jeffery combined for six receptions totaling 54 yards and one touchdown. The only factor that prevented the Bears from receiving a lower grade was that Cutler did not throw an interception.
