Chicago Bears Secure Third Win of Season with 16-13 Victory Over Carolina Panthers

The Chicago Bears won their third game of the season in the NFL this Thursday, beating the Carolina Panthers 16-13 at Soldier Field in Chicago (USA) thanks to a decisive touchdown from the ‘former’ of the visiting team D’Onta Foreman.

It wasn’t a spectacular game at Soldier Field, packed two days before Veterans Day in the United States, but the Bears did enough to put their two-game losing streak behind them and give joy to their fans after a poor first half of the season. lackluster

The Windy City team, the worst in the NFL last year, has a record of 3-7 after this victory and virtually said goodbye to its chances of reaching the postseason several weeks ago.

But they did not fail against the Panthers who lost their eighth game out of nine, which leaves them at the bottom of the table.

The expected private duel between Bryce Young, quarterback of the Panthers, and Justin Fields, of the Bears, two players who were at the center of Chicago’s reasoning at the end of last season, was not seen. Fields was out for the fourth game due to injury.

The Bears, who had the right to the first pick in the draft, were able to get Bryce Young, but finally decided to bet one more year on Justin Fields and try to take advantage of his full potential.

The Bears board reinforced the offense with pieces like DJ Moore, formerly of the Panthers, although the results this season remain very modest.

Thus, the duel was between Tyson Bagent and Bryce Young and saw two less than brilliant performances. No touchdown passes, although no interceptions. Young threw for 185 yards (21-of-38 passing), and Bagent threw for 162 (20-of-31). Foreman was the main player with 80 yards on the ground.

The most spectacular play of the night came early in the game, when Ihmir Smith-Marsettee scored a 79-yard touchdown return, stunning the Bears with his tremendous acceleration.

The Bears did not score a TD in the first half, but Cairo Santos’ successful hitting gave them three field goals and nine points.

The Panthers led 10-9 at halftime, but in the third period the touchdown came from the run of the ‘former’, Foreman. Four yards that increased the score to 16-9 and gave Chicago the advantage.

The final push by the Panthers led to a field goal by Eddy Pineiro, himself a ‘former’ of the game to make it 13-16. Pineiro himself attempted a field goal from 59 yards that could have equalized the match, but it fell short. EFE
