Bears’ grades are in. How did they do against the Lions?

What marks do the Bears get after being destroyed by the Lions 52-21 in Week 2?

QUARTERBACK — D-MINUS

Caleb Williams’ stat line — 19-for-30 for 207 yards and two touchdowns, plus an interception — doesn’t convey disaster in and of itself, so he has that going for him. Yet the gulf between his play and that of Lions QB Jared Goff was vast, a cold slap of reality to anyone who might have been feeling confident that Williams had stardom in his reach as a second-year player. An interception put where only Lions safety Kerby Joseph could get it was a terrible throw and an even worse decision. If Williams can’t sneak it for a first down on fourth-and-1 or throw it for a first down on fourth-and-5 without getting the ball tipped at the line, nobody’s going to mistake him for Mr. Clutch.

OFFENSIVE LINE — D

You’ve got to give these guys credit; they lasted three whole plays before the first false start, on right tackle Darnell Wright. After the Lions missed a second-quarter field goal, hope for the visitors still very much in the air, the Bears quickly got into Lions territory before center Drew Dalman was flagged for holding and, two plays later, left tackle Braxton Jones was flagged for a facemask. Next came an interception on second-and-32. Sweet drive, fellas. Was Williams really sacked only four times? There were some nice running lanes blown open, the only positive but not an insignificant one.

DEFENSE — F

The Bears were unable to set a franchise record for points allowed in a game, stopping three short at 52. Better luck next time? Seriously, this was a horror show. Goff hit Amon-Ra St. Brown for 34 yards on the Lions’ first play; four plays later, the score was 7-0 and it was hard to believe it had taken that long. A corner blitz later went nowhere, leading to an easy 32-yard completion to St. Brown. A 67-yard touchdown drive included six rushes for 55 yards — gash, gash, gash — and Jameson Williams later zipped through the secondary on a 64-yard catch-and-run like he was back at Alabama playing against McNeese State. The bleeding never stopped, and cornerback Jaylon Johnson and linebacker T.J. Edwards going down with injuries makes the near future all the more frightening.

COACHING — F

The good news is the Bears had their second opening-drive touchdown in as many games, after having none of them last season. Boy, that Ben Johnson sure can script ’em. The bad news is the rest of the game happened. Fourth-down go-for-it decisions in Bears territory didn’t work. As for the defense, has new coordinator Dennis Allen reported for work yet? If so, it’s hard to tell. The Bears “D” has worn down so completely in both fourth quarters this season, it’s already a five-alarm fire.

THE GENERAL MANAGER — F

A question, Ryan Poles: Did we just imagine it, or did you draft a tight end in the first round back in the spring? Neither No. 10 pick Colston Loveland nor No. 39 pick Luther Burden III has gotten involved in the offense, not a good sign whatsoever. Second-round picks Ozzy Trapilo and Shemar Turner were healthy scratches against the Lions. It’s not like the new head coach is crushing it, either. At least Poles got an extension, right?
