Bears get to see how they stack up after making big changes

Associated Press  

LAKE FOREST, Ill. — The Chicago Bears made big moves in the offseason they hope will help catapult them from the bottom of the NFL. “I would say I feel better about the identity overall, just because we’re in the system one more year, the coaches are more familiar with the players, the players that we have, bringing the new guys on, we’re bringing more experienced players,” Eberflus said. “So definitely feel more comfortable with that piece of it.” The Bears will start to see how they stack up when they host Green Bay in the season opener on Sunday. “I know what’s going on around the league and around our division,” safety Jaquan Brisker said. “But as long as we worry about what we gotta do, we’re just going to keep moving forward.” How far they go will obviously hinge largely on Fields’ development as a passer.
