The Bears’ only drive of the third quarter Sunday was a slowly squeezing boa constrictor of a possession, choking the life out of the Raiders team that they led by 11 points.
Over eight passes —mostly screens and checkdowns — and seven runs, the clock stopped only twice. In 8:16, the Bears marched 93 yards for a touchdown that smothered any concerns of another come-from-ahead loss. They won 30-12.
