The Windy City is feeling pretty good about its Chicago Bears after four straight wins and some good play on offense, defense, and special teams.
While the defense's 15 turnovers created in the last four are certainly capturing all the headlines, everyone always seems to care about the offense, particularly how quarterback Caleb Williams and the running game are doing.
Former NFL quarterback and NFL Network analyst Kurt Warner shared all the answers about the offense while appearing on 670 The Score. Warner admitted that while it isn't perfect, he likes what he sees out of the unit and Williams.
"I continue to see growth on my end. It's never going to be a perfect product. You very seldom play a perfect game. But ... I see the offense coming together. They're starting to run the football, they're starting to mix it up."
Bears' offense isn't perfect, but there are some building blocks to work off of
The highlight of the offense has no doubt been the success on the ground over the last two weeks. Chicago has racked up 145 yards against the Washington Commanders and 222 yards against the New Orleans Saints. Those performances actually helped the Bears accomplish what seemed like an impossible feat at the beginning of the year: they are ranked eighth in the NFL in rushing yards per game with 129.3.
Some of the big concerns with the Bears right now are the little things, like penalties. Bears head coach Ben Johnson has acknowledged that the offense needs to clean up mistakes, such as Theo Benedet and Colston Loveland each receiving two penalties in the win over the Saints.
Another conversation is about some of the inconsistencies Williams has with his off-target throws. While there were a couple of drops by Rome Odunze against the Saints, it did feel as though Williams had more inaccurate passes than in past games. His 61% completion percentage is well under what Johnson wants from his quarterback after setting a 70% goal before the season.

There's still work to be done with the Bears, but this offensive unit is coming together nicely and showing they are much better off this season than last year.
