The Bears’ defense carrying the offense on its shoulders is an old storyline at Halas Hall. But the other way around — that’s a rarity.
“It feels good to see them go out there and do what they do — just see 1 [Justin Fields] and the rest of the guys ball out on offense,” safety Eddie Jackson said. “But for us on defense — I was joking with [Darnell] Mooney today, ‘Man, we’ve been blowing that money for y’all on defense.’ Now it’s time for us to step up.”
