(AP) -- Tom Brady sat out his second straight preseason game, while the guy that will replace him at the start of the regular season continued to make progress. Brady did not go through pregame warmups Thursday night and never made it to the field for the New England Patriots' 23-22 win over the Chicago Bears. He had been expected to make his debut after missing last week's game to attend memorial services for a family member. Jimmy Garoppolo will start the first four games of the regular season while Brady serves his "Deflategate" suspension, and he made the most of the extra playing time. Asked about a report that Brady accidently cut his hand pregame, coach Bill Belichick said it was his call to only play Garoppolo and rookie Jacoby Brissett. "I made the decision for him not to play tonight," Belichick said. [SHOP: Gear up Bears fans! ] Garoppolo threaded a 16-yard touchdown pass in the back of the end zone to A.J. Derby late in the first half for his first TD pass of the preseason. He played the entire first half and one series in the second half, finishing 16 of 21 for 181 yards. Jay Cutler and Chicago's offense started the game with a lot more pep following an anemic effort in the opener last week. The Bears gained 78 yards of offense in the first half of their 22-0 loss to Denver last week. Chicago gained 59 yards in its first drive Thursday and surpassed last week's total in its second possession. Cutler played three series, completing 8 of 12 passes for 83 yards. Jeremy Langford also had a nice game, rushing eight times for 55 yards and a touchdown. The Patriots are away for their final two preseason games, so Thursday marked Brady's last opportunity to play in Foxborough until at least Oct. 16. His four-game suspension ends Oct. 3, but New England plays at Cleveland on Oct. 9 in what is expected to be Brady's regular-season debut.

Last year, with a new coaching staff that made no secret of its reservations about the quarterback they were inheriting with a contract they weren’t all that excited about, either, Cutler produced the best statistical season of his career. The overarching question for the Bears’ offense really hasn’t been whether Alshon Jeffery would get a long-term deal or how Kevin White would come back from his lost season. It was how the relationship – football and, ultimately, personally – with new coordinator Dowell Loggains would evolve from what they had with Loggains as Cutler’s position coach to what it needs to be for Loggains to coordinate the entire offense, not simply Cutler’s endeavors. Their bond, positive by all accounts coming out of last year, will take regular-season games – complete with successes and failures – to coalesce. But elements of Loggains’ “coordinator’s personality” are already bubbling to the surface. First were Loggains explosions during offseason practices when plays failed. On Wednesday came blunt talk about a bad day for the offense. And if last year suggested anything, it was that Cutler responds better to blunt than coddling. “I don't think today was our best day, and then we got a little bit tired,” Loggains said by way of critiquing his offense. “Coming off the [practice] off day is tough, then we had a couple dropped balls, the opportunity, we started fast, we had an opportunity to kind of finish the way we wanted to and eased off a little bit. “If we want to be a good team, we need to finish that practice, just like we need to finish in the fourth quarter when it's hot. We need to deal with some adversity and it was good for us to deal with that a little bit today.” [RELATED: Jay Cutler wishes Tom Brady good luck with Martellus Bennett this year ] Coincidentally, or not, his quarterback had precisely the same take on the offense’s performance. “I thought today was a little, kind of a half step back after the off day,” Cutler said. “We started off fast, didn’t end that well. I thought the o-line has played really well in the five, six, seven practices we’ve had. Receivers have kinda been up and down a little bit.” If chief operating officer and chief executive officer of the offense are seeing through similar eyes, that is a good starting point. Because Cutler and coordinators haven’t always (see: Kromer, Aaron; Tice, Mike). A foundation pillar of the offense for 2016 (and beyond) will be inexperienced wide receiver Kevin White. Coordinator and quarterback are agreed on how the young wideout is, and isn’t, progressing. Loggains: “Everything's a little bit new to [White]. He had the limited route tree coming from West Virginia. I think that he's gotten better with getting off press. I think that his relationship with [receivers] coach CJ [Curtis Johnson] has helped him a lot.” [SHOP: Gear up Bears fans! ] Cutler: “He just kind has that extra gear where he’s able to put a little bit more pressure on them. we just have to get him to a point where he’s maximizing every single play.” Many things look or sound good in training camp that become punch lines later when pressure is applied by real NFL life. And Cutler and Loggains could certainly unravel (see: Martz, Mike; Kromer, Aaron). But like most relationships, if there is communication, there is always a chance. “I think the communication is we continue to grow as an offense,” Loggains said. “We put down pillars last year and we're building off that, just everyone a year in the system longer, the coaches and the new coaches, just getting a better feeling. “And it helps Jay and I obviously communicate better because we communicate quicker and get to the point.” Ideally, the same point.
