What’s the latest with the Chicago Bears?
The Bears snapped a two-game losing streak defeating the Los Angeles Rams, 24-18, Sunday at Soldier Field. For the first time this season, the offense found a rhythm -- late in the first half and into the second half -- where they orchestrated three touchdown drives, including Caleb Williams and DJ Moore's first touchdown connection. D'Andre Swift and Roschon Johnson got the run game going, including a rushing score for each. The defense held an opposing offense under 21 points for the 10th consecutive game, and they continue to put this team in a position to win every week.
