Overview
- Minnesota went ahead 17-16 with 50 seconds left before Devin Duvernay’s 56-yard kickoff return set up Cairo Santos’ 48-yard field goal for a 19-17 Bears win.
- Caleb Williams emphasized a “live in the known” mindset and said the offense must finish takeaways with touchdowns rather than settling for fewer points.
- Head coach Ben Johnson told the team it has “so much to tighten up,” scheduled a Victory Monday, and awarded game balls to Duvernay, Santos, and team president Kevin Warren.
- Through Week 11, Williams has 2,329 passing yards with 13 touchdowns and four interceptions, plus 272 rushing yards and three rushing scores.
- The Athletic reported an opposing defensive coach’s view that Johnson is frustrated with Williams’ off-schedule style, and the 7-3 Bears next face the Steelers in Week 12.
