The Bear Raid philosophy will remain, but Spavital will have to replace the quarterback — No. 1 overall NFL draft pick Jared Goff no less — the top six receivers and half of last season’s snaps along the offensive line. The Bears’ defense allowed the 38th-most points and 19th-most yards per game last season, even if an up-tempo offensive attack elevates those numbers.
