MINNEAPOLIS — Cairo Santos doesn’t run on the field thinking about the Bears’ kicking follies of recent years. Or, really, about anything.
‘I’m just looking to make it, go 1-for-1 on my next kick,” he said Sunday after the Bears’ 33-27 win against the Vikings at U.S. Bank Stadium. “I think taking that approach helps you not think about what’s surrounding you with any pressure — or the importance, and everything.
“I just try to keep it simple. Less thinking and more doing, I think it’s the better I typically kick.”
Sunday, there was a lot of doing.
