Overview

• Chicago seized control with a 19-play, 76-yard third‑quarter touchdown drive that drained 9:54, featured 11 consecutive runs, and ended on Caleb Williams’ fourth‑and‑goal strike to DJ Moore.
• Williams went 19-of-28 for 298 yards and four touchdowns with a career‑high 142.6 passer rating, spreading scores to Moore, Rome Odunze, Luther Burden III and Cole Kmet while taking zero sacks.
• The defense produced four takeaways, including Tyrique Stevenson’s forced fumble and recovery, two interceptions by Tremaine Edmunds, and a late pick by Kevin Byard as Dallas’ final three drives ended in interceptions.
• Chicago’s 65-yard flea‑flicker touchdown to Burden was a planned shot Johnson said the staff identified on film, highlighting a game plan that mixed explosives with a bruising ground approach.
• Kmet said he “blacked out” during the marathon drive and Moore called it “torture,” while rookie tight end Colston Loveland left with a hip injury that leaves his Week 4 availability in question as the Bears visit the Raiders.
