Alshon Jeffery exploded out of the gate once again in the first half, and finished the contest with five receptions for 96 yards. Eddie Royal did a great job turning short passes into big gains throughout the night, ending the game with four catches for 52 yards. Kevin White looked a little better than he did in Week 1. When given the chance to be on the field, White took advantage. The second-year receiver had four catches of his own for 36 yards, and did convert on a first down on an end around handoff for nine yards.

Tight end Zach Miller had another quiet game with four grabs for 33 yards. Backup tight end Logan Paulsen didn’t touch the ball all game, but did miss a block on a safety blitz on the Bears’ first offensive drive of the game, which resulted in a sack.

Grade: C+
