Bear & Balanced: Bears come from behind (the line of scrimmage) to beat the Vikings

The Chicago Bears did it! They hung tough, overcame some fourth-quarter mistakes, and fought back for a last-second victory against the Minnesota Vikings . That makes it four wins in the last eight games for Matt Eberflus' squad, but at no point in any of these wins have I been comfortable watching the Chicago offense.

There have been moments for sure, but there's a disconnect between quarterback and playcaller. Offensive coordinator Luke Getsy seems like he's not all-in on what Justin Fields can do well, and that makes it look like he doesn't trust his QB. It makes for some really odd game plans, none of which were as strange as his screen-happy attack last night. According to Next Gen Stats, 16 of Fields' passes were behind the line of scrimmage. He completed 14 of them, but that's a ridiculous amount of screens.
