Everything you need to know about how to watch the Bears at Patriots live stream in the 2016 NFL preseason online
Every NFL team has things that they want to see coming into the 2016 preseason. After all, that’s essentially the point of it all—to assess where things are at as a whole for your team going into the regular season. However, there are some teams with more to gauge than others. Two teams that qualify in that regard will be facing off on Thursday as it will be the Chicago Bears heading to Gillette Stadium to take on the New England Patriots.
The home team in the Patriots will again have all eyes honed in on quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo. With Tom Brady’s four-game suspension looming, this is Garoppolo’s show for the time being. He looked good at times in the Pats’ preseason opener, but showed his inexperience at other times as well. Obviously the hope is that there will be more positive signs than not in Week 2 of the preseason. However, that may be harder to make happen with Rob Gronkowski nursing injuries suffered at practice.
Meanwhile, Chicago hopes that they can show just any signs of life in Week 2. Jay Cutler and company were absolutely thrashed in their first preseason outing, failing to put any points on the board. The hope is that they’ve now been able to work out at least some of the kinks in practice and can take strides forward. That doesn’t just apply to the offense as you’d also hope the defense too has progressed over the past week after watching film and getting to work.
