One good sign from Bears quarterback Caleb Williams against the Commanders, despite one of his worst overall statistical performances, was that something eventually clicked and he gave his team a chance to win late.
The Bears took a 15-12 lead with 25 seconds left before falling 18-15 on a Hail Mary pass from Jayden Daniels to Noah Brown on the final play. The Bears scored their first points on D’Andre Swift’s 56-yard touchdown run in the third quarter, then Williams drove them to the Commanders’ 1-yard line midway through the fourth quarter — Doug Kramer fumbled — and led a 62-yard touchdown drive near the end.
