From one 20-yard line to another, the Bears were dynamic Thursday.

Inside the red zone, though, they were a train wreck, coming away with no points despite being at the Commanders’ 5-yard line or closer on three different trips. The Bears became only the second team this season to post at least 390 yards and score less than 10 points, per ESPN Stats and Information.
