Analysis: Offseason changes can bring about desired results but also can cause other potential problems and the Bears could find themselves scrambling to address new headaches in 2024.
The Bears spent all but a reported $21 million of their allotted salary cap space and used their five draft picks to strengthen weak areas or cover complete holes in their roster.
However, in this case the effect could be much more dramatic because they’ve both removed the source of 2,020 rushing yards over the last three seasons but also the threat who kept defenses honest. Love the back having the split flow action here to create this cut back opportunity for Justin Fields. In addition to being a better conventional run-blocking team, the Bears offensive line and backfield blockers must improve at holding their ground and keeping away pass rushers.Personnel differences could matter but three years of offensive plays and results in Seattle proved fairly definitive. Waldron’s offense is going to make the Bears more of a high-risk, high-reward attack.In three years, the best Waldron’s Seahawks offenses ranked at possession the football was next to last in the NFL .
Fields did get better at avoiding interceptions in his third season but rookies are going to throw them, especially early in their first season until they have a better idea about the closing speed of defensive backs and the way coordinators trap them into making dumb throws. D'Andre Swift fumbled at the goal line and instead of burying their young, talented RB on the bench, Darrell Bevell went back to him again.The Bears lost edge rushers Yannick Ngakoue and his four sacks, and also Rasheem Green, who had two sacks.
