AI Recap
AI RECAPIn a tightly contested battle at Soldier Field, the New York Jets held off the Chicago Bears with a 25-18 victory in Week 4 of the 2026 season. This win propels the Jets further up the standings as they continue to build momentum early in the season, while the Bears face the challenge of regrouping after a hard-fought game.
Offensively, the Jets leaned on their ground game with Kareem Hunt leading the charge, rushing for 78 yards. While the Bears' Caleb Williams put up 218 passing yards and a touchdown, it wasn't enough to overcome the Jets' balanced attack. Rome Odunze was a standout for Chicago as well, racking up 82 receiving yards, but the Bears' offense struggled to find the end zone consistently.
Defensively, the Jets made their presence felt with Jamien Sherwood recording a crucial sack that disrupted the Bears' rhythm. Despite Kyler Gordon's interception and Devin Bush's 10 tackles for Chicago, the Bears couldn't capitalize on their defensive efforts. The game's turning point came in the fourth quarter when the Jets’ defensive unit clamped down, preventing the Bears from mounting a comeback and sealing the victory.
