This comeback win in Phoenix, AZ for the Chicago Bears wasn’t as dramatic as the one they had in 2006, but it was dramatic enough. After spotting the Arizona Cardinals 14 points in the first quarter, the Bears (2-1) slowly rallied in the final three quarters of play to come away with a 16-14 victory. This win, along with losses by the Green Bay Packers and the Minnesota Vikings, puts Chicago in first place in the NFC North for the first time since 2013.

Continuing with their pattern so far this season, the Bears’ defense dominated by forcing four consecutive turnovers in the second half, while the offense had just enough production to outscore the Cardinals. Having Arizona put in a different quarterback didn’t even faze the Bears. Slowly, but surely, Chicago’s offense is finding its way while the defense is holding them up on their shoulders.

Here’s a look at the Bears’ Week 3 report card.
