The Chicago Bears lost their preseason finale to the Buffalo Bills on Saturday at Soldier Field. Who will make the cutdown to the 53-man roster?
Bears quarterback Justin Fields tries to run past Bills cornerback Christian Benford in the first quarter of a preseason game at Soldier Field on Saturday, Aug. 26, 2023.
Whatever the case, and it really doesn’t matter at this point, Fields took a total of 20 snaps in the preseason — seven in Week 1 against the Tennessee Titans — and the baker’s dozen here and it’s on to the regular season. The second is the screen game. The Bears worked on it a ton this offseason and in training camp, and of the five passes Fields completed in the preseason, three came on screens. They’ve gotten better along the line in terms of executing the timing of the play, and watching Moore, Foreman and Khalil Herbert against the Titans, they can use a variety of receivers. I’m confident running back Roschon Johnson will be an effective pass catcher.
The Bears general manager briskly walks the edge of the field before pregame warmups. Joining Poles on his walk Saturday morning was offensive coordinator Luke Getsy. It’s worth wondering what topics they covered as they circled Soldier Field time and again.
Walker had a pretty small sample size of preseason action to evaluate as a whole. The problem is some of his work in practice was bumpy as well. All of it will factor in the decision the team makes as it sets a depth chart to begin the season.Bears quarterback P.J. Walker throws a pass in the fourth quarter of a preseason game against the Bills at Soldier Field on Aug. 26, 2023.
Mastrole entered with 2 minutes, 17 seconds remaining in the game and the Bears on the Rams 19-yard line trailing 17-13. He connected with Kenny Christian on a 52-yard play streaking down the left side after a defensive pass interference call on fourth down kept the drive alive. Then, facing fourth-and-10 from the Rams 15 with 61 seconds remaining, Mastrole hit Christian with a back-shoulder throw for a touchdown.
Bears quarterback Tyson Bagent throws on the run in the second quarter of a preseason game against the Bills at Soldier Field on Aug. 26, 2023. ”From what I have seen and what I have trained over the years, and I know it all matters what you’re putting on film, he belongs in the league,” Mastrole said. “I hope it’s with the Bears. I do believe, no doubt, he can be at least a backup in the NFL. He’s got that potential. He’s got the size, the athletic ability, the football IQ. He’s showing you his accuracy too.
Bears fullback Robert Burns and running back Roschon Johnson celebrate after Burns scored a touchdown in the fourth quarter of a preseason game against the Bills at Soldier Field on Aug. 26, 2023. 5. Defensive end Yannick Ngakoue and middle linebacker Tremaine Edmunds appeared in preseason action for the first time.It’s not overstating it to say they could be the two most important pieces to improvements for the defense this season., signed to a four-year, $72 million contract, and Ngakoue is an edge rusher Ryan Poles played the long game to land, adding him a week into training camp.
They appear to have a roster with more playmakers this season, and I’m particularly interested to see how rookie defensive tackles Zachh Pickens and Gervon Dexter will perform. The return of Jackson and Brisker will round out what can be a very good secondary. Nickel cornerback Kyler Gordon should be poised for a better season after an impressive training camp. But this unit didn’t stand up real well in the preseason in what thankfully is a small sample size.
