Each week, we send 32 polls to 100+ plugged in fans from each team. Bears fans, sign up HERE to join FanPulse.According to the pundits in Vegas, the Chicago Bears are a three point favorite this Sunday to knock off the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Home teams often get a standard three point bump just because they’re playing in front of friendly fans, so this tells us that the game could be a close one. One of our weekly FanPulse questions asks each fanbase to predict the final score differential, and this week us Bears’ fans are predicting a three point Bears victory, which in line with the professional odds-makers. But the Buccaneers’ fans are a bit more confident in their team. Bucs’ fans have their team winning by six. In our weekly FanPulse confidence poll we told you guys that Tampa fans are checking in with a 92% confidence rating, so even after their first loss of the season they still expect Ryan “Fitz-Magic” Fitzpatrick to lead their team to the playoffs.What do you guys predict for the game?And if you haven’t joined FanPulse, do it now! The Bears’ offense is a competent unit, but it is not a unit with an identity. Nor is it an offense with a truly dangerous weapon. Tarik Cohen has his moments, but he is 51st in the NFL in terms of yards per reception, and 13th in terms of yards per rush. He is 32nd in yards from scrimmage per game in the NFL (at 79.4). He’s clearly a great addition to the team, and he’s more than the gadget player some critics dismissed him as from the beginning Youth Anthony Miller Jersey , but he is not going to knock a defense on its heels. He doesn’t have enough carries to be ranked by Football Outsiders’ DVOA, even if he is their 8th-best receiving running back. Cohen is, frankly, a fantastic ‘2’ for an offense that has a 1-2 punch. That 1 just isn’t playing right now.Time for full disclosure—I went into this piece looking at ten areas that I suspected the Bears were struggling, thinking that I could find a few to build into an article. My original title was going to be “X Things The Bears Need to Improve,” with the idea being that it really didn’t matter if only half of the areas were struggles.No luck. The Bears really have only an area or two where they are struggling, and one of those (Special Teams) is skewed by one bad game. I don’t like arguing from anecdote that severely, so I had to change directions.Of my original ten ideas, this was the only one that really stuck.Meanwhile, Trey Burton is the 19th tight end in the league when it comes to yards after the catch, while only being 9th in terms of targeted air yards (per Next Gen stats). Burton is a solid 11th in yards per reception among tight ends. That’s not bad, by any stretch of the imagination, but it is also not a dominating performance. Things get better for believers in Football Outsiders’ analysis http://www.bearsfootballauthentics.com/danny-trevathan-jersey-authentic , because according to them he is at least 11th in terms of DVOA among tight ends, and 7th in DYAR. However, he’s 71st in receiving yards per game. In other words, Burton is playing like a good tight end, and he’s earning the contract Pace gave him. What he’s not doing is forcing defenses to adjust to him, and he’s not taking over games.“Deep threat” Taylor Gabriel is the highest-ranking Bear in terms of receiving yards per game, but he’s only 48th on the list. The low placement of the Bears on these lists is not an artifact of perfect ball distribution, because the Bears are 21st in receiving yards per game as a team. Instead, the receiving corps is adequate. It’s just not dangerous.It’s hard to fault or credit Trubisky in any of this, either. By now, #10 has been analyzed and over-analyzed sufficiently. However, it’s enough to point out that even with a mediocre performance against the Bills, his passer rating is enough to keep him in the top half of quarterbacks without being in the top quartile. He’s 15th in ANY/A. In other words http://www.bearscheapstores.com/adrian-amos-jersey-cheap , he’s playing fine football. He has his ups and downs, and he’s keeping drives alive at times, but he’s not taking over games. That is neither a criticism nor an apology--it’s just an observation that even if nothing about Trubisky so far has elevated the Chicago offense on a consistent basis, it’s hard to build a reasonable case that he’s somehow keeping Burton or Gabriel from unlocking their potential.What this leaves is three possibilities. The first, and probably the likeliest, is that the Bears are not going to have a true game-breaker on offense this season. They will have a quietly competent offense that serves as a counter-punch to their defense. The second is that one of the players currently earning solid (but unremarkable) stats will take a step forward. That would be nice, but it seems unlikely that it would suddenly happen in a stretch of games that will feature the Vikings twice and the Rams. The final possibility is that Allen Robinson will be a difference-maker, either by breaking games open himself or by drawing just enough attention to provide one of the others (Gabriel, Burton, or Cohen are the likeliest) a chance to truly shine.
