2. The Rams defense is good (and should have been)

The Rams defense ran the show on Monday night. With two interception on Foles, four sacks, 261 passing yards allowed, and just 50 yards in rushing allowed, the Rams defense was certainly a key to their win.

Foles was seen throwing a ridiculous pass, which seemed to be an out of bounds throw, but turned into a late interception to end the game.

Shockingly, defensive monster Aaron Donald only had half-a-sack for the whole game. It shouldn't be a worry for fans however, as Donald should be back in form against the Miami Dolphins next week.


1. Trubisky Time?

Nick Foles has been Chicago's starting quarterback since Week 3 against the Atlanta Falcons. Since then, he has performed just average. Nothing spectacular or nothing to say that Nagy should bench him. But against the Rams, Foles could not throw a single touchdown to get the Bears on the scoreboard.

Time is running out for the Mitch Trubisky experiment. The Bears still has plenty of pieces to add before it can even be a true playoff contender. Foles has not been playing like the savior he once was for the Philadelphia Eagles.

Trubisky will be a free agent after this season and it could be a possibility that the organization decides to trade the former No. 2 overall draft pick before the Nov. 3 deadline. After Foles' poor against the Rams, several Bears' fans are calling on Nagy to put Trubisky back in. Could we seem him play against the Saints?
