1. Mitch Trubisky made throws against DET that pros do. His big tosses to Horsted and Miller weren& #39;t just lobbing it to wide open guys.
They were well-executed passes from the pocket.
It was the first time he did that consistently throughout a game too. Encouraging. #Bears

2. David Montgomery showed what he could do when he actually gets blocking.
The guy is a nightmare to tackle. Give him lanes and he& #39;ll make life hell for linebackers and defensive backs.
I do think the #Bears should pair him with a home run hitter if possible though.

3. Anthony Miller proved beyond a doubt that he& #39;s the #2 wide receiver on this offense.
When he and Allen Robinson are clicking, the #Bears are hard to stop.
If they ever find a tight end, this passing attack could turn into something special.

4. In the two games Javon Wims has been targeted four times or more this season, he& #39;s made 9 catches for 112 yards. Both games were wins in which the #Bears QB had a passer rating over 100.
Translation? Good things happen when you get him involved.

5. Jesper Horsted reminds me of a former tight end named Todd Christensen.
Undersized and not overly fast but slippery and just a magician when the ball was thrown in his direction.
If this kid can bulk up a bit and learns to run routes?
Look out. #Bears

6. Roquan Smith must& #39;ve found his power coin somewhere because he morphed into an absolute stud after Trevathan went down.
Before the injury (8 games) - 67 tackles, 1 TFL
After the injury (3 games) - 30 tackles, 1 INT, 2 sacks, 4 TFL
Wow.

7. I lost count of how many times Khalil Mack almost had a sack in Detroit. David Blough was constantly having to get away from him, especially as the game went along.
This is why leaning on stats is inadvisable. Blocking Mack was a nightmare.

8. Nick Kwiatkoski has bee one of the best blitzing inside linebackers in the league over the past four weeks, constantly getting pressure on the quarterback.
What& #39;s even more impressive though? He has an INT and three passes defended too, showing improvement in coverage. #Bears
