Passing Defense: B

The bad news is that former Bears Josh McCown completed 25 of 48 passes for 341 yards and a touchdown. The good news is the Bears defense recorded a season-high five sacks, and two third-quarter interceptions that helped set up two of Chicago’s three touchdowns in the period.

While the Bears did give up a a few big plays through the air, they did force four turnovers. And without those takeaways, the team loses another winnable game at home.
