Studs and duds for Bears through first quarter of 2021 NFL season

For all intents and purposes, we’ve reached the first quarter of the 2021 NFL season and the Chicago Bears are hovering around the middle of the pack.

In just four games, there’s been a little bit of everything when it comes to the individual performances. For example, we’ve seen dominant defensive performances that led to turnovers on three straight plays, and we’ve seen offensive outputs so horrendous that it set the game of football back 95 years.
