I'm not sure what "illustrating a funny" means, but yes I could tell you were joking. But the fact that the top targets are now Marshall, Jeffery, Bennett, Bennett instead of Hester, Knox, Davis, Bennett I think will make a huge impact in how effective the offense is. Knox was a good receiver but couldn't make a catch in traffic at all.

Three reasons why the Bears offense was so super last year.

1. Drive killing drops by Hester and Davis. Davis is gone and I think the Bears will draft a WR to replace Hester as WR.

2. Sacks or quick pressure allowed. Signing Bushrod and moving Webb to RT helps that a lot. The Bears might also sign another lineman. And I have no doubt that we will go o-line within the first four rounds.

3. Cutlers decision making. Adding extra receiving threats and better protection will definitely help that, but we can't determine if his decision making has improved until games are played.

2/3 problems have been fixed or at least dramatically improved. I won't get ahead of myself and say top-5 offense like last year but the Bears definitely will be top 15 in offense probably top 10 assuming they draft the right players, which the FO have shown no signs of not doing.
