Caleb Williams led the way for Chicago, throwing for three touchdown passes, showcasing his ability to connect with his receivers at crucial times.

Chicago's defense made a pivotal stand late in the game, forcing a crucial turnover that allowed them to maintain their lead. Ruben Hyppolite II's interception sealed the deal, ensuring the Bears could run out the clock and secure their hard-fought victory.
