Fixing the ground game was a clear priority for the Chicago Bears during their Week 5 bye, and over the subsequent two games, it paid off in both efficiency (5.5 yards per carry) and volume (67 attempts).
In Week 8 against the Baltimore Ravens, the Bears' run game reverted to what it looked like in the first month of the season, with 96 yards on 23 attempts. D'Andre Swift extended his touchdown streak to three games, but he went a noticeable time without a carry as he and Kyle Monangai combined for just 18 carries.
The Bears' overall offensive struggles against Baltimore, trailing in the game, and Swift's injury report listing a groin issue were factors in the lack of rush volume.
