The Chicago Bears looked like a team dead in the water just one week ago after their disappointing loss to the Detroit Lions. However, they bounced back in spectacular fashion, dominating the Dallas Cowboys to secure their first win under head coach Ben Johnson.
The Bears defeated the Cowboys 31-14, improving their record to 1-2 and quieting the concerns of many fans following an 0-2 start to the season.
Quarterback Caleb Williams delivered the best performance of his career, completing 19-of-28 passes for 298 yards and four touchdowns. Importantly, Williams did not commit a single turnover and wasn’t sacked once — a first in his career.
Williams showcased his talents in front of his former coach, Matt Eberflus, now the Cowboys’ defensive coordinator, effortlessly dissecting Dallas’ defense throughout the game.
On the other side of the ball, the Bears’ defense stepped up with three takeaways, two of which came deep in the red zone, helping to preserve the victory.
This win was crucial not only for the Bears team but also for their fanbase. After suffering a crushing 52-21 loss to the Lions, many feared the worst. Now, with this commanding win, the weight is lifted as the team showed the country they can compete at a high level.
