Running Backs

Once again, running back Jordan Howard was the feature runner in the Bears’ backfield. The league’s second-leading rookie rusher was productive both as a ball carrier and a receiver. Howard gained 127 total yards from scrimmage (84 rushing, 43 receiving). Had Chicago not been so dependent upon their passing game due to trailing for virtually the whole game, Howard’s 4.7 yards per carry average might have helped keep Tennessee’s defense off balance in the second half. The only bad thing Howard did was drop a pass in the flat in the red zone on the Bears’ opening drive.

Grade: B
