The Chicago Bears offense is hoping for a bounce-back effort in Week 2 when they face the Houston Texans.
For all the talk about the struggles of rookie quarterback Caleb Williams in Week 1, he has a chance to silence the overreaction on Sunday night.
Sunday night will also be a test for the Bears' defense. It was because of the defense that the Bears were victorious against the Tennessee Titans last week but the argument could be made that Titans' quarterback Will Levis handed the game over. That's not something that the Bears will be able to count on during their game on Sunday night. Texans' quarterback CJ Stroud does not turn the ball over, increasing the need for the Bears to be able to put hits on Stroud.
