Bears QB Mitch Trubisky inconsistent in first half vs. Falcons

ATLANTA — Mitch Trubisky’s third start of the season looks, thus far, a lot like his body of work the rest of the season: inconsistent.

The Bears trail the Falcons 16-10 at halftime after the quarterback went 12-for-20 for 123 yards in the first half.

His final two drives of the frame were emblematic of his ups and downs. Trubisky’s quarterback’s 45-yard scramble with two-and-a-half minutes left in the first half Sunday set up the Bears’ only touchdown of the game, a two-yard pass to tight end Jimmy Graham. On the next drive, though, Trubisky overthrew receiver Anthony Miller, who was streaking down the field and behind defenders, on third-and-2.
