The Chicago Bears were plagued by missed tackles in last Sunday night’s loss to the Green Bay Packers, which was evident both against the run and pass.
Chicago allowed 203 yards on the ground, where Packers running back Aaron Jones had his way with 132 yards on 15 carries (8.8 average). Missed tackles were a big issue in those struggles.
Head coach Matt Eberflus said he is “not tolerant at all” of missed tackles, even though he admitted they’re more frequent during the beginning of a season.
