After snapping a 14-game losing streak with their dominant 'Thursday Night Football' win over the Washington Commanders, the Chicago Bears are hungry for more wins.

An adjustment the Chicago Bears offense should consider

We've seen the results over the first two weeks of the season so far. Just about everyone who's watched the Chicago Bears offense has come to the same conclusion: it's hard to watch.
