The Chicago Bears have come out swinging under first-year head coach Ben Johnson. They are coming off a tremendous win on Monday night against the Washington Commanders, beating them 25-24.
One bright spot in the game came from running back D'Andre Swift. He had 14 carries, rushing for 108 yards, while Caleb Williams threw for 252 yards and a touchdown.
The Bears must keep up this style of offense if they want to continue to stack wins. Having a strong rushing game will keep defenses on their toes and allow Williams to shine as he drops back.
Bears encouraged to upgrade their backfield by trading for Jets star
While Swift's Week 6 performance was fantastic, that was the first time that he had amassed 100 yards in a single game this season. To his credit, he does get some carries taken away by DJ Moore and Caleb Williams at times.
Upgrading their backfield is something that could really set Chicago up for success for the remainder of the season. PFF's Bradley Locker believes trading for New York Jets RB Breece Hall is an exciting option.
"Hall's future in New York seemed bleak at best given Braelon Allen's development – and even with Allen sidelined for much of the rest of the year, the Jets will likely prioritize other pending free agents over their inconsistent back. Bears running backs rank 26th in PFF rushing grade..."
Hall's future in New York seems like a ticking time bomb, and the Bears could use somebody with something to prove. He could be a great addition and another weapon Chicago could turn to as they try to rise in the NFC North.
