It's dress rehearsal week in the NFL preseason as most team's starters will play the entire first half and some may be going into the second half.

For the Chicago Bears, the return to Soldier Field for their first home preseason game is a big one. After a few weeks of somewhat "hiding" things in the offense, we should get a good feel for what this Bears offense will look like this season when they hit the field on Saturday.

The Bears did have an extra week of training camp plus the one preseason game but we really didn't see much up until the Week 2 game in Denver. In that game, the Bears looked like they took a step forward, particularly on offense despite not having a few key players out there or at full go.

As the Bears are in the middle of prepping for Saturday's game, quarterback Mitchell Trubisky likes where this offense is right now and feels like they are close to being complete.

"Yeah, we're getting closer and closer," Trubisky said. "We have a better idea of what our game plan is and what plays we like in certain situations and what we're going to start with and all that so I've got a lot better idea about the offense."

Following the practices and game against Denver, Trubisky came away feeling good about where the team is at. The week in the Mile High City helped the team gauge where they stand through the first few weeks of the exhibition schedule.

"Yeah, definitely just keep getting better and better, be more efficient," Trubisky said. "Obviously scoring points is a big emphasis in this offense and for us, it really starts with just positive plays and getting that first, first down within a series so ah, finishing in the end zone and then just not beating ourselves. No penalties, no turnovers and that are something we're just going to focus on and we're still grooming this offense, getting better each time we go out there and have the ball in our hands."

Wide receiver Allen Robinson played in the game against Denver but was limited in the action he saw. Taylor Gabriel missed the game as he was dealing with a foot injury but has since returned to practice. Both are expected to play against Kansas City, giving Trubisky a full arsenal of weapons.

For Week 1, the Bears will likely roll with Robinson, Gabriel and rookie Anthony Miller as the starters and Kevin White should see some playing time as well. Tight end Trey Burton has emerged as a go-to guy for Trubisky during practices but having all of them together for live-game reps, even in the preseason, can help Trubisky and his receivers get the timing down and on the same page.

"We're still growing," Trubisky said. "Like I've said, we're trying to get better every single day. So the timing, we're just continuing to get that down, groove that down. And it's never going to be perfect but that's what we strive to do. The more reps I can get with these new guys within this new offense, we're still learning. But we're getting there, we're getting closer and closer. And we're just trying to see what kind of heights we can take this offense to and timing will be a big part of that."

Saturday's game will likely be the final time we see the starters together on the field until the Week 1 opener at Green Bay. After this very important dress rehearsal, the Bears will have just over two weeks to prepare for the opener against the Packers.

But as it stands right now, Trubisky is confident with where the team is now heading into this season.

"I feel confident. I feel confident," Trubisky said. "We've still got a lot of work to do in preparing for Week 1 in Green Bay but right now we're focused on Kansas City and preseason and where we're just going about how we game plan for each week. As soon as we get used to that we'll be able to game plan for the week after and then Green Bay. So one step at a time, we'll continue to get better. And it's a growing process. So we're just going to continue to buy in and do exactly what these coaches do and then just go out there and execute the way we know how."
