The Bears have been one of the worst scoring defenses in the first half, but one of the best in the second half.
Williams put the onus on himself again for his players’ troubling trend of starting slowly in the first quarter. The disparity between the team’s first half defense and second half defense is jarring. They’re surrendering 16 points over the first two quarters on average, which is tied for 30th in the NFL. In the second half they’re much better, giving up only 5.2 points, good for fifth-best in the league.
“It's my job to get them ready to go early on,” Williams said. “So it’s completely on me. And I think the better that we play, the more confidence that they’ll have. Starting off the second half, we are— I like to look at the positive parts of it— the second half, that we’re playing lights-out football. And so we just want to make sure that we can move that second half into the first half, first quarter, second drive, second quarter.
“We'll look and see what we did in the second half and the energy that we bring, the tackling, the turnovers, all those things, make sure that theyー we want those things to show up in the first half.”
