Will Trubisky return vs. Saints? Players of intrigue after the bye

Bears coach Matt Nagy added an intriguing twist to the perfunctory self-scouting process of the NFL’s bye week.

“To me, it’s not so much about [looking for tendencies and predictability] as it is now you’re able to self-scout … the players and how they’re performing,” Nagy said Monday following the Bears 24-21 loss to the Raiders in London. “That’s what this one’s probably a little bit more about, with where we’re at offensively.”

The logical inference is that changes might be made when the Bears return to Halas Hall on Monday. Don’t expect too much. The speculation centers mostly on the underperforming offensive line — particularly right guard Kyle Long — which is far from the only culprit, but is a fair starting point for a rejuvenation.
