I'm not sure what the answer is either but by now a team should be able to at least run it's base offense successfully. These are the 12-15 core plays every one should know their assignments on and be able to execute well.

The pure fact that they aren't even able to do that yet is maddening and if I'm Fox I'm asking for answers from my offensive staff now. From last week to this week they slipped right back in the hole again and looked like they did against Denver.

I also don't accept Cutler's we'll get it worked out. THESE plays should already be worked out and they should be so basic that even the backup can execute them better than this. If they play like this in the opener somebody better start to answer for it.

That sounds like Kenny Williams of the White Sox after 3-5 years of absolutely mediocre play and terrible drafting/FA.

Ric are you aware that Forte has been MIA most of camp with a hamstring injury and that today is the first game he's played in?  I fought against the idea that he was not injury prone and had plenty of good football left in him but maybe I was wrong.

He missed 3 games last year and he's far less than 100% so far this year so maybe they did the right thing.  Who can say?  But Forte wouldn't make any yardage behind blocking like that either and you don't pay a guy $4 mil a year just to be a locker room leader.

Forte rushed 10 times tonight for 18 yards.  As big a fan I was of his, letting a 30yo RB go when you have 3 young replacements in the wings doesn't bother me too much.  

To both i am, but reality is until a vet that has shown greatness in the reg season proves he cannot do it in the reg season I'm not worried about them. It's average to meh vets; and unproven players I worry about how their play looks in the pre season.

The defense will be okay I think. The starting offense looks like a clown show right now. And the problems go beyond the OL right now. This was supposed to be the "dress rehearsal" game for the season. The starting O looks pretty bad.

You can't win games with 3-and-outs on offense. Hard for a D to overcome that.

Yep.  If Loggains is such a demanding OC then he needs to either demand some guy get their heads out of their asses and into the game or send a few packing as a way of firing a warning shot over the bow of those who remain.  This is pathetic offensive football.

Unless we see a significant improvement in the first couple of games f the regular season, I predict that Loggains' tenure at OC will be short.  Might not make it through the season.

Quite frankly, Loggains is one person that I am wondering about. So far the O does not look like its clicking. At all

I wondered the exact same think, BIH.
He may be in over his head.  But only time will tell.

They just looked like a rag-tag bunch of bumbling fools today.  Can't block.  Can't catch.  Can't throw.  And a grand total of 18 yards total offense for our starters in that first half.  It puts extra stress on our defense too.  The 3-and-outs are a killer.  It looked like our D starters were getting winded out there.

I know one thing.  I sure am getting tired of crap Bears seasons.  And it looks like this will be another one.  The long-suffering Chicago Bears fans deserve better than this.  They really do.

They had - 7 yards passing in the first half....how the #@&% do you do that!

It's a "gift" that the Chicago Bears have.  We usually cook up excuses for the failures of our offense in general, and Jay Cutler in particular.  This year we'll continue that scam.  Then we'll begin looking forward to "next year"... it is what Bears fans do.  I do know that I get tired of watching us look like a steaming pile of dog crap in these games year-after-year.  I try to be a good fan, and continue to back the team.  But Bears fans deserve better than what we are getting with this franchise.

The bottom-line for most fans is simply wanting the team to improve each year. That's all most of us ask for. Just get better. But watching this 2016 Bears team sure looks like we are going to struggle. Again. Bears fans deserve better than this.

I really believe we will end up in last place in the NFCN again this year.  Floating in the toilet bowl, stinking it up again.  In recent years we've become one of "those teams" that other NFL fans look upon like they stepped in a pile of dog crap.  Disgusting franchise.  Losing franchise.

I figured it out. Loggins is trying to confuse opposing defensive coordinators by providing them with tape that only shows our offense as a incompetent bunch of JV quality talent. Houstons defense will have no idea what to defend against.
Lets blitz the weak are on the Oline, well crap we don't know where the strong area is. Work on certain routes for WR, ha they don't know them anyway.

It's such a small thing to, wanting the team to just look better then the shit it did the year before; and the Bears are just mired in crap year and year.
