They say defense wins championships. Well it can also win sloppy regular-season games. In our best impression of a Lovie Smith team since we actually were one, the Bears got off the bus running, and didn’t stop for 68 minutes. And we served the full Lovie-style menu, complete with your running, your menacing (and scoring) defense, your QB being a non-factor, more of your running, your almost blowing it, and then for dessert, your barely hanging on to win. And the timing is ironic, as this is our first road win since the last time we faced Lovie (Dec. 2015). In Lovie’s defense, he did have Conte on his team that day.
It took 5 years, but our Lovie-level D is finally back!
