The defensive line did what they had to do in both playing against the run and the pass. Chicago was stout against the Colts and their ground attack, controlling the line of scrimmage and helping the defense hold Indianapolis under 100 yards rushing. Defensive ends Akiem Hicks and rookie Jonathan Bullard each had a sack on quarterback Andrew Luck.
