The Chicago Bears do not have a great offensive line. That was apparent again on Sunday when they failed in four tries to score from the one-yard-line against the Lions. And after finishing in the middle of the pack in sacks allowed last year, Chicago is ranked second to last after Week 1 with four sacks allowed.
But not all sacks are created equal, and in the Bears' case, a big part of the problem is either Jay Cutler or the wide receivers. Last year Cutler was third in the league in sacks where the sack took place three seconds or more after the snap -- 19 of Cutler's sacks came on 3-plus second sacks. The average sack last year took place 2.7 seconds after the snap, three seconds is a good, if admittedly rough, demarcation point of when a quarterback should know that he's about to be staring through his ear hole.
