It’s only preseason. It’s only preseason. It’s only preseason.
That’s the sound you’re hearing from Halas Hall and the entire city of Chicago as a whole after watching the Bears get out-played in every way imaginable in a 41-13 loss against the New York Giants on Monday Night Football.
You’re going to surely hear people talk about the fact the Indianapolis Colts have lost eight straight preseason games, and how the 2008 0-16 Detroit Lions went 4-0 in exhibition games. Heck, even my father was speaking to me about how the 1985 Bears stunk up the joint in the preseason.
But while people are still convincing themselves that last night’s game did not matter, there were obvious concerns that emerged from the Meadowlands beat down last night, and none of them concern the offensive line.
Depending on if your a glass half full or empty kind of person, it’s great the offensive line did well enough that they weren’t the problem, or it’s downright scary that the rest of the team was so bad last night, that it makes the O-line an afterthought.
Here are five new major concerns the Bears now must worry about with only three weeks to go until Opening Day.
