Penix Jr. struggled with reads and accuracy under pressure for second straight game; blitzed 48.7% of dropbacks.

For the second consecutive game, Michael Penix Jr. looked incapable of making the right reads and throwing accurately under pressure for long stretches. The Bears blitzed Penix Jr. on an alarming 48.7 percent of his dropbacks. The coaching staff's game plan to combat Dennis Allen's constant schemed-up pressures should raise plenty of questions. Penix Jr. still could have operated better with quicker processing and better feel for blindside pressure. It took until the fourth quarter for him to find some rhythm against Chicago's defense when they rushed five or six.
