Bears blowout win over Buccaneers 
Everything seemed to go right for the Chicago Bears in their Week 4 win over the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. 
Matt Nagy's offense exploded to the tune of 48 points, and Mitchell Trubisky looked like the quarterback fans have been waiting for. The defense played its usual brand of dominance, and Tampa Bay had no answers.
It was everything the Bears needed as they head into their bye week 3-1 at the top of the NFC North standings.
How did it all come together? Here are the studs and duds from the blowout win at Soldier Field. 
....
Trubisky threw
seven touchdowns during his 12 game rookie season. He threw
six on Sunday to go with only seven total incompletions against the Buccaneers.
He finished with a career-high 354 yards, and Bears fans are left with most (if not all) of their concerns alleviated.
The second-year quarterback played a great game, but Matt Nagy deserves a lot of the credit too. Trubisky was able to throw to wide open receivers all over the field because of well-planned route combinations run by the play-caller.
.....
The Buccaneers had no answers for what Nagy kept throwing at them, and Trubisky took full advantage of what the head coach laid out for him.
It was a great combined effort that led to the historic passing performance of the Bears' offense.
Jordan Howard took a back seat to Tarik Cohen against the Buccaneers. The presumed No. 1 running back only had 11 carries in the game, and eight of them came in the second half with the Bears up by five touchdowns.
He once again averaged fewer than three yards per carry, and the offense had a lot more success in the Cohen-centric game plan.
This doesn't necessarily mean that Howard is demoted for the rest of the season, but it does call into question how these running back roles will change as the season goes on.
Nagy likes to mix things up in the backfield and give the defense a lot to prepare for, and Cohen seemed to do the trick versus Tampa Bay.
You won't hear Howard complaining, though, when the team wins by 38.
Tarik Cohen was the go-to guy for Matt Nagy and Mitchell Trubisky. He led the team with 13 carries for 53 yards on the ground, and seven catches for 121 yards and a touchdown through the air.
The second-year running back emerged in the dynamic role everyone was expecting from him this season. Nagy lined Cohen up all over and found different ways to get him the ball in space.
His speed was often too much for the Buccaneers to keep up with, and the misdirection kept the defense guessing where the ball was ending up.
Cohen isn't necessarily the No. 1 running back from here on out, but it's clear that the offense was at its best with him in the game.
Nagy will keep finding ways to get him the ball, and as long as the big plays keep coming, Cohen's role in the offense will continue to grow.
....
Another week, another sack and forced fumble by defensive MVP Khalil Mack.
He added a pass breakup and a key hit on Jameis Winston that forced an interception by Danny Trevathan, once again providing the one-man wrecking crew on the left side of the defense.
......
Mack continued to make big plays in the running game on top of his pass-rushing prowess, and he has been worth every penny through four games of the season.
He makes everyone else on the defense better, setting up strong games from Aaron Lynch, Bilal Nichols and the rest of Vic Fangio's unit.
Bears fans are still thanking Jon Gruden for letting the star pass-rusher go, and Ryan Pace looks smarter and smarter every week for sending the farm for Mack.
The Bears' offense was all about their short, fast guys. Tarik Cohen wasn't the only one.
Taylor Gabriel went over 100 receiving yards too, with a career-high 104 and two touchdowns on seven catches. Two of his catches went for over 30 yards.
Like Cohen, his speed proved to be too much for a young Buccaneers secondary to handle, and Matt Nagy's schemes freed up him regularly for nice throws from Mitchell Trubisky.
Allen Robinson had been Trubisky's go-to target through the first three weeks, but Gabriel reminded everyone why he earned a four-year, $26 million contract this offseason.
He can be a difference-maker in the Bears' offense, and it only took four weeks for everything to come together.
