The Chicago Bears have struggled to close out close games this season, but the team was able to come away with its third victory of the season in Week 9 against the San Diego Chargers.
The Chargers took an early 13-0 lead on Monday Night Football, but the Bears bounced back in the second half and improved to 3-5 on the year with a 22-19 victory over San Diego.
“We were doing what we needed to do, we just needed to stop shooting ourselves in the foot,” tight end Martellus Bennett said about Chicago’s early struggles, per WGNRadio.com’s Adam Hoge. “So we put the gun away and stopped shooting ourselves in the foot.”
Chicago racked up 446 yards of total offense, and the defense held the Chargers to just 339 yards of total offense. The Bears did turn the ball over twice in the first half, but the defense finished the game with one takeaway.
The Bears will not have a lot of time to celebrate, as they will head to St. Louis in Week 10 on short rest to take on the 4-4 Rams at the Edward Jones Dome on Sunday.
