We saw way more of the running game during this contest than we did in Week 1. Rookie running back David Montgomery led the way with 18 carries for 62 yards and his first career rushing touchdown, which helped give the Bears a 13-3 lead in the third quarter. Tarik Cohen and Mike Davis were afterthoughts in the ground attack, combining for only 19 yards on seven carries. Cohen did very little as a receiver out of the backfield as well, hauling in just two passes for seven yards.
