Here’s a look at the most recent and relevant Bears stories for the morning of Friday, Dec. 20:
D'Andre Swift frustrated with great practices not translating to success
Swift has the same feelings as many players on the offensive unit, with lack of production, failed execution, and all of it being repetitive throughout the season. No one on the roster expected the season to turn this way, with so much talent at the skill positions and only four wins to show for it, while currently on an eight-game losing streak.
Thomas Brown says Caleb Williams is frustrated, but confidence not shaken
Interim head coach Thomas Brown was asked about the confidence level of his rookie quarterback. Despite being tied for the league-lead in sacks taken by a quarterback, Brown says he doesn't believe, even as dejected as Williams looked on Monday night, that his confidence is shaken. But the rookie is definitely frustrated.
Robbie Gould: Bears' slow starts in first half not a recipe for success
Franchise legend and former kicker Robbie Gould is frustrated, just as are the current players, coaches, as well as fans of the organization with the lack of first-half production, with the continued losses. During his weekly appearance on "Bears Den" on the Marquee Sports Network, Gould discussed how the Bears' inability to score in the first half, while being outscored 53-0 in their last three first halves, is clearly not a recipe for success.
