FOXBOROUGH, Mass. — The Bears looked like a new team as they raced to an early lead against the Patriots, then slipped into the same problems that have derailed them all season.
But after all that, a couple big plays in the final minutes of the second quarter sent them into halftime with a 20-14 lead.
The Bears were up 10-0 with two minutes left in the first quarter.
They forced the Patriots into three-and-outs on their first two possessions and answered each time with a score.
