How many players have regressed defensively?

For the Bears? Honestly there’s no fight in the defense, Gregory’s bend but don’t break philosophy is pathetic! Can you imagine Oregon, Oregon State, USC, and Arizona State playing like the Bears do defensively? They’d never do it because it allows for way too many big plays and points being scored!

Each one of those coordinators knows how to run a defense, Gregory on the other hand is clueless.
