It’s also fresh in my memory when the Chicago Bears trotted out Tanner Gentry and Tre McBride as their startling X and Z receiver. So when looking over the talent and upside among the Bears receiving corps now, I’m excited to see how this unit will grow in year two of the Matt Nagy system with third year quarterback, Pro Bowler Mitchell Trubisky, pulling the trigger. SB Nation has recently ranked the Bears wide out group as the 10th best in the league, and that has more to do with what is expected of them rather than what they did in 2018. Last year it was Taylor Gabriel leading their receiver room with 67 catches, which ranked 37th in the NFL. Allen Robinson’s 764 receiving yards led the Bears, but ranked only 38th in the league. And Anthony Miller's 7 receiving touchdown’s was tops on the Bears, but tied with eight other players for 16th in the NFL. Those three all return for the Bears, as does promising second year pro Javon Wims, but they also have added the electrifying Cordarrelle Patterson and rookie Riley Ridley — whom has looked very good at OTAs do far — that expect to bolster their receiving depth.Chicago still may not have a wide out rank in the top 10 in any category in 2019 http://www.thebearslockerroom.com/authentic-brian-urlacher-jersey , but as a collective, these guys could be as effective as any we’ve seen in Bears’ history.Here are the nine receiving corps that SB Nation ranks higher that the Bears. 1) Atlanta Falcons: Julio Jones, Calvin Ridley, Mohamed Sanu, Justin Hardy2) Cleveland Browns: Odell Beckham Jr., Jarvis Landry, Antonio Callaway, Rashard Higgins3)Los Angeles Rams: Brandin Cooks, Robert Woods, Cooper Kupp Womens Leonard Floyd Jersey , Josh Reynolds4) Minnesota Vikings: Adam Thielen, Stefon Diggs, Laquon Treadwell, Chad Beebe5)Cincinnati Bengals: A.J. Green, Tyler Boyd, John Ross, Alex Erickson6) Oakland Raiders: Antonio Brown, Tyrell Williams, J.J. Nelson, Marcell Ateman7)Philadelphia Eagles:Alshon Jeffery Eric Kush Jersey , Nelson Agholor, DeSean Jackson, J.J. Arcega-Whiteside8)Los Angeles Chargers: Keenan Allen, Mike Williams, Travis Benjamin, Dylan Cantrell9) Houston Texans: DeAndre Hopkins, Will Fuller, Keke Coutee, DeAndre CarterDo you agree with their rankings? Bears coach Matt Nagy made a list. He checked it twice. So when they got to the goal line and needed a play, he reached deep into his bag.The touchdown pass to offensive lineman Bradley Sowell was named “Santa’s Sleigh http://www.thebearslockerroom.com/authentic-roquan-smith-jersey ,” and was the gift they needed at the right time.Via Cam Ellis of , the defensive staff gave the play its seasonal name last week, since it featured four defensive linemen on the field as well as the six offensive linemen out there with quarterback Mitchell Trubisky (making him look like an elf).Trubisky faked the handoff to defensive tackle Akiem Hicks (who ran “Freezer Left” last week), and Hicks sold it well enough while Sowell was peeling off into the flat at the goal line.“We needed a play, so they gave it to the playmaker,” Sowell said. “It was one of those things that I’m glad Nagy trusts me to do. He tried it with me earlier in the season and got flack for it but gave it back to me and it worked out great.”Sowell scored during his freshman year at Ole Miss, but that was a decade ago, so he had to lobby a bit for his chance. But Nagy praised his hands and his ability to make the textbook catch.“It’s cool having a coach that’s willing to do that,” defensive end Roy Robertson-Harris said. “It shows how fun he is. Not a lot of coaches do stuff like that, so it’s fun to be around a coach that wants to do stuff like that Womens Eddie Goldman Jersey , having defensive players get in on the plays. You know, have fun. We’re not here to be robots, we’re here to have fun. It’s a job, but we’re having fun with it right now.”Having that kind of fun with goal line plays has become part of the Bears’ formula, and the reason they have to be considered a dangerous playoff team, along with a defense that does the conventional stuff so well.
