The only thorn that was in the secondary’s side was Broncos wide receiver Emmanuel Sanders. The Bears allowed Sanders to catch 11 of the 13 passes thrown his way for 98 yards and a touchdown that helped give Denver the lead late in the game. Cornerback Kyle Fuller was the victim of that red-zone touchdown, as well as the two-point conversion which followed. However, Fuller did come up big prior to this with a red-zone interception that halted a Broncos 16-play, 84-yard drive.
