Bears offense struggles with rookie QB

Through two weeks, the Bears have had the fewest passing yards, the second fewest total yards (behind the Panthers) and the fifth fewest rushing yards in the NFL.

“When we finally get together and we’re all on the same page, it’ll be good,” receiver DJ Moore said this week. “Right now, we’re still building. … Until we get this whole puzzle together, it’s going to be an up-and-down road.”

Caleb Williams, the No. 1 overall pick in the 2024 NFL Draft, was hit 11 times in Week 2.

“I’m a bit banged up,” he admitted after the match.

The Giants are dreaming about Malik Nabers

If New York is to get into the win column, it will need to rely on rookie quarterback Malik Nabers. The former LSU star, selected with the No. 6 overall pick, had 10 receptions for 127 yards and a score in Week 2. His 18 targets were the most in a single game since 2016.

His 25 goals this season rank second in the league.

The Browns rank middle in the NFL in passing yards per game at 179.5.
