The Chicago Bears didn't have a great 2019 offensively. Tarik Cohen knows that there's plenty of room for improvement for him and the team moving forward. However, he refuses to take flak from fans that clearly doesn't know whatever it is they're talking about.
During an Instagram Live video where he's seen chilling with his friends, he noticed a comment that rubbed him off the wrong way. The Bears talent immediately addressed the suggestion in an expletive-filled retort that basically negated everything that was said to him.
Barstool Chicago had a copy of the hilarious moment:

Cohen's response to the issue is funny but expected out of him.
“Somebody said, ‘you need to run north and south.' (Bleep) you! I average four yards a carry. What do you mean north and south? I average four; you couldn't average four in high school football.”
The takedown was quite specific but effective. Fans can easily forget that only a small percentage of players make it to the NFL. While his 2019 campaign was nothing short of disappointing, it's hard to deny that he's one of the best in the world. The Bears are surely grateful to have him.
However, the fan may be looking at things from the perspective of his outstanding sophomore campaign. He finished 2018 with 444 rushing yards and three touchdowns to go with his 728 receiving yards and five receiving TDs. The previous year was a struggle for the one-time First-Team All-Pro.
Fans should definitely expect him to look for an improvement in 2020. His effectiveness in the run and the pass make him a dynamic weapon for the Bears, and it's only a matter of time until Chicago finds the perfect QB who can make full use of his talents.
