The Scoring Explosion that Exposes a Larger Problem The Chicago Bears' dominant performance in their season opener against the Carolina Panthers, scoring 59 points, has left fans and pundits wondering if they're on the verge of something special.
Coach Ben Johnson asserts that his team can break the single season scoring record set by the 2013 Broncos, a feat that seems within reach given their dismantling of the Panthers' defense.
However, beneath this high scoring affair lies a more pressing concern: the Bears' defense was abysmal, allowing an astonishing 478 yards to the Panthers.
