Bear’s Offense Historically Bad

If you're a Chicago Bears fan, you don't need more stats thrown your way to tell your team is off to a tough start. I'm going to anyway. Sunday against the Seahawks the Bears turned in a historically bad performance. How bad? It can be summed up in one word...Punt.

The Bears had 10 offensive possessions Sunday at Seattle. All 10 ended with a punt. No field goal attempts, no going for it on fourth down. Punt, Punt, Punt, Punt, Punt, Punt, Punt, Punt, Punt and Punt. Since records have been kept since 1980, no other NFL team has punted on all of it's offensive possessions. Congratulations Chicago.

To be fair, they had backup quarterback Jimmy Clausen at the helm of the offense. He netted only 48 yards passing. Plus, the Bear's defense has given up 105 points in just 3 games, the most since 2003. The 0-3 Bears will host the Oakland Raiders on Sunday.
