Khalil Mack still appears to be hampered with an ankle injury. Mack had only one tackle on the afternoon. Danny Trevathan led the corps of linebackers with 10 tackles (game-high). Rookie Roquan Smith was credited with the team’s only sack. As a collective unit, the Bears’ linebackers had trouble covering New England’s running backs in the passing game, surrendering two receiving touchdowns in the red zone.
