The Chicago Bears had a chance to get to .500 for the first time this season, but they lost 17-15 to the Denver Broncos in Week 11. The loss dropped the team to 4-6 on the year.
Chicago’s offense gained 347 total yards, but the defense allowed 389 total yards. Denver’s Brock Osweiler got his first career start in place of the injured Peyton Manning on Sunday, and the former Arizona State star completed 20 of his 27 passing attempts for 250 yards with two touchdowns against a Bears defense that recorded five sacks.
On offense, the Bears struggled to get into a rhythm both on the ground and through the air, and they struggled to score touchdowns in the red zone.
A short week awaits the Bears in Week 12 when they travel to Green Bay to take on the Packers on Thanksgiving night. The Packers improved to 7-3 on the year after defeating the Minnesota Vikings in Week 11, and the Bears will need to show improvement on both sides of the ball if they want to come away with just their second win against the Packers since 2011.
