Like the 49ers, the Chicago Bears got off to a relatively hot start in Week 11 before completely falling apart in the second half.

The New York Giants surged back with 13 unanswered points in the third quarter, en route to a 22-16 victory over quarterback Jay Cutler and the hapless Bears.

Cutler clearly misses wide receiver Alshon Jeffery, who is still serving a four-game suspension for PEDs. But even Jeffery can’t solve all the issues going on in Chicago right now. The Bears were a measly 4-of-12 on third downs during the game, and the defense couldn’t get to Giants quarterback Eli Manning at all.

Losing rookie pass-rusher Leonard Floyd won’t help matters either. And reports are now suggesting Cutler could be done for the year with a shoulder injury.
