The Bears’ defense feels as though it’s ready for the season, and that group has every reason to believe that.
Not only has the defense dominated throughout training camp, it bullied the Dolphins in a joint practice and scrambled the Bills and reigning MVP quarterback Josh Allen last week. With nothing left to prove until Sept. 8 against the Vikings, the first-string defense played one series Sunday against the Bills’ backups and called it a night.
They called it a preseason, too, most likely.
The sneak preview lasted just three plays against Bills third-team quarterback Mike White as they held out Allen and saved backup Mitch Trubisky for the third quarter.
