Bears’ best defensive players in Week 4 loss vs. Broncos, per PFF

Bears Broncos Jamie Sabau USA TODAY Sports Chicago (Organization)

The Chicago Bears (0-4) were defeated by the Denver Broncos (1-3), 31-28, where Chicago dropped to 14 straight losses dating back to last season.

What started as a dream became a nightmare in the fourth quarter. Following a career day from quarterback Justin Fields, the Bears blew a 21-point lead at the end of the third quarter, where the Broncos made adjustments and took advantage of some late turnovers to pull off the comeback win.
