Defense Shows They Still Have It

There was a lot of talk about the lack of big plays coming from the Chicago Bears defense the last few weeks, but they showed they still have what it takes in the 27-3 win over the St. Louis Rams on Sunday. They tallied five sacks and four interceptions during the game, and five players had four or more tackles.

One of those sacks went to Alex Brown, who commented on the game, saying, “It’s just a confidence booster going into this week. We have a very good [opponent], a team I believe that is better than the team we just played, so we’ve got to be ready. It just gives us a little more confidence understanding that if everybody does their job, this type of stuff can happen. We played well, we played hard. I’m pretty sure there are some things that we need to correct, but hopefully we can correct those things and keep playing at this level. We’re going to need it for the next five games.”

The Bears are preparing for a hard-fought match this Sunday as they take on the Minnesota Vikings. After the Green Bay Packers lost on Monday night, the Vikings and the Bears are tied for the top spot in the NFC North. Reserve your Chicago Bears tickets at StubHub.com.
