Bears hold off Patriots 30–24 after Santos' late field goal

Recap · 1 min read

The Chicago Bears beat the New England Patriots 30–24 on Thursday, with Santos' 58-yard field goal providing the decisive points. New England answered with a field goal, but Chicago then ran out the clock.

Chicago scored the game's first 10 points on a Santos field goal and Swift's 4-yard touchdown run. Maye's 7-yard rushing touchdown, awarded after New England challenged the initial ruling, cut into the lead.

Jackson intercepted Maye before Williams found Burden for a 24-yard touchdown and a 20–7 lead. Maye responded with a 48-yard touchdown pass to Stevenson as the first half ended. Williams threw a 12-yard touchdown to Loveland in the third quarter, and Maye answered with a 30-yard score to Raridon.

Santos missed a 53-yard field goal in the fourth quarter before connecting from 58 yards. Caleb Williams finished 22 of 33 for 308 yards and 2 touchdowns. Luther Burden III had 4 catches for 130 yards and a touchdown. Drake Maye went 24 of 31 for 321 yards, 2 touchdowns and an interception.
