He is something else .I hate New England but he would shine there He would shine anywhere they had a damn offensive coordinator that used him properly. I listen to the announcers calling the game yesterday and they still think Cohen is a major scoring threat for Chicago. But as long as their QB struggles, Cohen will be underutilized.

Cohen may want to audition for other teams. The Bears have under utilized him.
From the "YARDBARKER": Winners, losers from Bears' statement victory over Cowboys on TNF
Loser: Tarik Cohen, running back, Bears
This has been the case all season. For some reason, Cohen has not been a part of Matt Nagy’s offense. The explosive former All-Pro running back entered Week 14 having put up just 456 yards on 101 attempts. It did not get any better against Dallas.
As the rest of the Bears offense was buzzing, Cohen was nowhere to be found. He finished the evening with 31 total yards on nine touches. David Montgomery continues to get a bulk of the touches. Meanwhile, Trubisky is focusing more on Allen Robinson. All of this has led to a major regression from the 24-year-old Cohen.

Cohen is being criminally underused. Nagy was hired under the pretense that he was/is an offensive guru for the work that he did in Kansas. Not sure what has happened this year within the Bears organization that you have a weapon like Tarik who was ALL-PRO last year and this year he is virtually invisible within the offense. Definitely time for Tarik's agent to be thinking about the next move.

Some teams are known for the offense and others for their defense...Da Bears are known for their defense. The Bears haven't had a really good QB in decades and rarely know what to do with running backs. Cohen, unfortunately isn't going to shine in that environment. The Bears are looking for big backs that can pass block as well as run 3 or 4 years between the tackles.

He didn't play well last night, especially on punt returns. Bobbled a couple when he it looked like he had some open field in front of him.
Also, it looks like he is not breaking tackles as much as was did during first two years in the league.

Good game Tarik, although you didn't have any long runs or touchdowns, you contributed by making catches, not having any tackles for loss, and definitely not turning the ball over!

The Bears are looking for big backs that can pass block as well as run 3 or 4 years between the tackles. You are correct the Bears have always liked big backs . They had a kid named Wolf similar in size to The Kid . Wolf had an outstanding rookie season but in his sophomore season you can see his carries the Menace . In season 3 he was used mostly as a decoy and on special teams . Similar to what they're doing to The Kid . Montgomery is a good back but he is not The Kid and is no where near as explosive with the ball in his hands . Someone said that he should auaudition for another team in the offseason ; he is auditioning right now and can't audition for anyone as long as he is under contract without the Bears permission . If I'm not mistaken The Kid is close to the end of his contact this season we will see if the Bears offer him a extension or a New contract . I hope that his agent is doing his job and letting The Kid know that there are eyes on him and to not let up and the touches he gets he has to make the best of them all .

I am so frustrated with how the Bears are utilizing Cohen right now.

One thing that hurt Chicago / Cohen is blocking by tight ends and poor play by the QB
