Chicago Bears Sackwatch 2023: Week 9 vs New Orleans Saints

The Chicago Bears' sacks allowed numbers have dropped significantly with Tyson Bagent in at quarterback while Justin Fields has been sidelined with a thumb injury. Taking into account just the 2023 qualified passers, there are only two quarterbacks that have been sacked less frequently than Bagent's 4.3%: Josh Allen (3.9%) and Patrick Mahomes (3.5%). On the flip side, only one QB has been sacked at a higher percentage than Fields' 12.9%: Daniel Jones (15.8%).

More disturbing than the sacks allowed this season has been the inconsistency from Luke Getsy's schemes and playcalling. Whenever he stumbles on something that works, he overthinks it and stops doing it.
