Rain, sleet or sunny, the math equation is always the same: 1 + 2 equals 6.
Both the Bears and Falcons had no issue throwing the football into the flurry of snow to begin Sunday’s game, with both teams taking shots down the field. Atlanta was able to find success in that department but they ultimately flamed out, missing a questionable field goal try from 50 yards.
Chicago was able to capitalize on their initial deep shot attempt, starting the series with Justin Fields finding DJ Moore down the sideline. The promising drive bore fruit despite a botched snap, as Fields threw a pitch-perfect throw to Moore who was running toward the back left pylon for the touchdown.
Go DJ, that's my DJ 😎
