“4. Punt Return Average 11.7 (5th in the NFL) In my lifetime, the Chicago Bears have usually had one of the best special teams units in the NFL. Though their hiccup in Week 7 vs. New England could cause a few Bears fans to doubt them, it’s an area their team has dominated in again this season. One specific area in which Chicago has thrived is in the punt game. They are averaging 11.7 yards per return, the fifth most in the NFL. Tarik Cohen has been fantastic, racking up 199 yards on 17 returns. He’s not Devin Hester, but he is one of the most dangerous returners in the NFL.”
