The Chicago Bears of the National Football League (NFL) unfortunately lost a game in which they had caught up dramatically.
The Bears lost 27-30 in the home game against the Minnesota Vikings (9 wins, 2 losses) held at Soldier Field on the 24th.
The Bears, who had been on a 4-game losing streak until last week, scored a long-awaited touchdown in the first quarter and took a 7-0 lead.
The Bears, who finished the first half with a score of 10 to 14, gave up 10 points in the third quarter and were down 16 to 27 two minutes before the end of the game.
However, the Bears went on a last-minute attack and scored a touchdown 22 seconds before the end of the game, followed by an onside kick, giving them the right to attack. The Bears’ successful onside kick today was the first successful case in the U.S. Professional Football League this season.
The Bears continued their momentum and succeeded in sending the game into overtime by scoring a tying field goal at the end of the game.
However, the Bears failed to score in the first offense of overtime and unfortunately lost when they allowed a field goal to the Vikings on defense.
On this day, Bears quarterback Caleb Williams completed 32 of 47 pass attempts, advanced 340 passing yards, and recorded 2 touchdowns. DJ Moore and Keenan Allen led the Bears offense, recording 106 and 87 receiving yards, respectively, and one touchdown.
The Bears, who have fallen into a swamp of 5 consecutive losses due to this day’s loss, will play an away game against the Detroit Lions (10 wins, 1 loss), the leader of the National Conference North Division and first place in the entire conference, on the 28th.
