Colts screens are usually the result of Peyton Manning audibles; if he sees a defender playing off, he’ll toss a quick one to pick up some easy yards. As a result, the screens were spread about evenly among Reggie Wayne, Austin Collie and Pierre Garcon. Bears screens were often direct attempts to make Devin Hester or Earl Bennett do something fun. Hester caught 11 of 12 screens thrown to him, but except for one 33-yard run against the Browns, he didn’t do much with them. Bennett, meanwhile, caught 12 of the 13 screens thrown to him for 129 yards, including 23, 29 and 30 yard runs. Rest assured that with Mike Martz coaching the Bears offense, all receivers will get ample opportunities.
