Chicago Bears hit bottom 5 low in NFL history with Vikings dud
The Chicago Bears exited Week 1 flying high after scoring 59 points against the Carolina Panthers, the offensive kings of the NFL. But their Week 2 matchup against the Minnesota Vikings told an entirely different story, putting that title to the test.
The Bears felt 9-3, failing to find the endzone. Chicago did outgain Minnesota 297-246. But it was a far cry from their Week 1 performance.
Numerous factors dampened the Bears’ shine in Week 2. For starters, they were facing one of the most dangerous defenses in the league. Furthermore, rain was pouring down and the wind was whipping all game. Lastly, quarterback Caleb Williams couldn’t finish the game due to injury.
Still, the final score remains permanent. And it has now painted the Bears in the least positive light imaginable.
Chicago Bears’ Week 2 drop off
Going from 59 points to three in a span of two weeks is the fourth-largest drop off in scoring in NFL history, via Ben Solak of ESPN. You’d have to go back to 1973 and furthest to see fall offs that large. But due to the circumstances and with their play, the point scoring reduction wasn’t too shocking.
“According to ESPN Research, it was the biggest swing since the 1973 Falcons, who had a 62-point falloff,” Solak wrote. “Before them? The 1934 Eagles and the 1920 Rochester Jeffersons — a real team, apparently!”
“Everything went right for the Bears’ offense in Week 1; everything went wrong in Week 2,” he continued. “Chicago had multiple drops on the day. D’Andre Swift fumbled at Minnesota’s 1-yard line. A penalty wiped out a completion to the Vikings’ 16; that drive ended in a punt. And of course, the Bears had a field goal blocked inside the Vikings’ 10 — after QB Caleb Williams came up lame on what would have been a walk-in touchdown, screaming and holding his right hamstring.”
The Bears will take solace knowing their dud happened in Week 2. They have plenty of time to improve and will see the Vikings later again in the season. But Chicago is now well aware of what things look like if their offense isn’t cooking.
