After a sluggish start to the season, this Chicago Bears offense is beginning to find a nice groove. The Bears have now scored 29 or more points in each of their last three. This surge can largely be attributed to the continued overall growth of Justin Fields, who has connected on over 60% of his pass attempts since Week 6.

However, TE Cole Kmet was also notable beneficiary of Chicago's new and improved offensive attack against the Miami Dolphins in Week 9.
Through the first seven weeks of Kmet's third NFL season, he failed to reach the endzone and averaged less than two catches a game. But, in the last two games, the tight end has caught three touchdowns and most recently recorded five catches on six targets for 41 yards.
Kmet believes his increased productivity stems from the offense finding consistency, but the recent success is also a product of the tight end's growth from last season to now.
"I still think that if I look at myself last year, and I know people don't love talking about the run-game stuff, but my run-game blocking has been great this year and I've been really proud of what I have been doing on film in that regard," Kmet said. "My separation on routes has been great. Not all the time has it really worked out where we have been able to hit it for whatever reason, but that has been going well for me. I think at the end of the day, as we've been getting more comfortable in this offense, you can see guys starting to execute better in the red zone and things like that."
