CHICAGO (AP) — The defense delivered for the Chicago Bears. It was one of the team's best performances of the season on that side of the ball.
Just not good enough.
“I guess we should have held them to three points or zero points at the end of the day,” safety Kevin Byard said.
Byard and Co. shut down Seattle on Thursday night, limiting Geno Smith and the Seahawks to 265 yards and Jason Myers' two field goals. But Chicago finished with just 179 yards of offense in a 6-3 loss.
