Tom Thayer believes D’Andre Swift is the key to Bears offense.

there has been a lot of chatter about the Chicago Bears leading up to their big season opener against the Tennessee Titans with new additions all over the field it is easy to ramp up the Hye on ESPN 1000s cap and jay. Hood this week former Bears player and Super Bowl 20 Champion Tom theer discussed what he likes about this Chicago team his key to this being a successful season makes sense but it isn't what people are talking about the most you know the running game has always got this offense going they said if you want to go back to the or present day they're one of the best in the league and I think DeAndre Swift is the key ingredient to this offense and how it moves up and down the field he's a great Outlet receiver he catches screens really well he's a good interior Vision Runner but if you can incorporate him and the defense little bit more susceptible to line of scrimmage responsibilities then you start talking about opening up your chances down field I think it is Run game first and then you know take advantage of your downfield opportunities most people want to see rookie quarterback Caleb Williams and this passing game with impressive cast of weapons including DJ Moore Kenan Allen Romo duns and Cole km however theer made the point about Swift being the guy who will make this offense work he's right Swift can run catch and he'll make defenses think twice about everything for a rookie like Williams who is shouldering a ton of pressure a back like Swift could be a key piece to the success of this offense in year one of the Williams era Swift comes over from the Philadelphia Eagles where he had a breakout season with 1,49 rushing yards he also added 214 receiving yards on top of it before that he had three solid years with the Detroit Lions where he wasn't the main guy but had solid years in his role the Bears put their faith in Swift and now it is on him to reward them for that Faith he's incredibly talented and has the tools needed to be an impactful player hopefully the Bears see it the same way as they who knows a thing or two about this he also knows what success in Chicago feels like and wants that for this current team Swift is going to be a big part of the success of this offense moving forward
