This win was definitely spearheaded by the defense. With three interceptions, four sacks, a forced fumble, a fumble recovery, and two touchdowns, Chicago’s defense did more than enough on their own to put another win in the win column. On the other side of the ball, the offense took a couple of steps back from what they’ve done in previous weeks. The Bears gained a total of only 190 yards of offense, and committed a lot of team’s 14 penalties on the afternoon. Despite that, the offense did score three touchdowns.
With another dominating win added to their record, how well did Chicago grade across the board for Week 9?
