Quarterback Brian Hoyer began the first half completing eight of 12 pass attempts for 71 yards, and finished the game 30 for 49 with 317 yards and two touchdowns. Hoyer did what he could when trying to carry the Bears on his back all the way down to the final two minutes of the game. The eight-year veteran even did his best avoiding pressure when the pocket collapsed, but wasn’t elusive enough to prevent tripping over his own lineman, which resulted in a lost fumble on the Bears’ last offensive possession. For the moment, Hoyer may have kept Bears fans from thinking of Jay Cutler.

Grade: B
