Quarterback

With this performance, Brian Hoyer could have officially unseated Jay Cuter as the Bears’ starting quarterback. The eight-year veteran managed the game, while at the same time putting up big numbers. Hoyer recorded his third-straight 300-yard game (397 yards to be exact) and threw two touchdowns with no interceptions. The only knock on Hoyer in this game could be the fact that he threw the ball behind his intended receiver on Chicago’s final offensive play of the game, while not looking in the direction of a wide open Alshon Jeffery down the side line.
