Bears' wide receiver DJ Moore is not worried about the improved secondaries in the NFC North and for good reason

The Bears' offense will have plenty of mouths to feed considering the unit consists of Moore, Keenan Allen, Rome Odunze, Cole Kmet, Gerald Everett, and D'Andre Swift to get the ball to each and every game.

The wide receiver trio alone in Moore, Allen, and Odunze will be tough for opposing defenses to plan against and the other teams in the NFC North have taken notice.

Each of the three other divisional teams have ramped up their secondary this offseason while preparing to face this trio twice a year. The Green Bay Packers brought in safety Xavier McKinney and a slew of rookie defensive backs into the room with Jaire Alexander, the Detroit Lions used their first round pick to acquire cornerback Terrion Arnold and traded for cornerback Carlton Davis III, while the Minnesota Vikings signed cornerback Shaquill Griffin and drafted Khyree Jackson.

Despite the aggressiveness to revamp the secondaries in the NFC North, Moore isn’t worried about the added pressure that will come from playing those units this season.

"Oh yeah, that's nice," Moore jokingly said when faced with the question. "I don't feel no way about it. They're just there."

Moore has a very good reason to feel that way after racking up 1,364 yards and eight touchdowns as the team's only legitimate threat at the position last season. Now, with Allen and Odunze in the fold, Moore will face a lot less of the primary focus meaning no more double, and even triple, teams in coverage.

"So, [I'll] get more excitement out of it," Moore explained. "We got people on the field that you can't just double team or somebody else is going to be open and making a game for themselves. Anyone of us could go off and have a game if you put man-to-man on us."

Moore even doubled down on the expectations for him and his fellow starting receivers saying that there will be a race to 1,000 yards between the three of them.

As for facing some top secondaries in the division next season, the Bears' offense should be well equipped to handle it considering what the team will be going up against on the other side of the ball throughout the summer.

Matt Eberflus' defense played like one of the best units in football during the second half of the 2023 season and finished the year tied for first in interceptions. The unit didn’t lose a single member and will be returning Pro Bowl cornerback Jaylon Johnson along with the addition of former All-Pro safety Kevin Byard.

It's set to be an exciting battle all summer, and all season, long as we all anticipate what this new-look Bears' offense will actually look like this season.
