WARE, England -- The nickname that Chicago Bears defensive end DeMarcus Walker coined aptly describes the way Chicago's defense harassed Panthers quarterback Andy Dalton in a 36-10 win over Carolina.
The Bears pressured Dalton (and briefly backup quarterback Bryce Young) on 20-of-41 dropbacks (48.8%) for their highest pressure rate in a game since ESPN began tracking the metric in 2009.
Walker captioned a photo on X of himself and several Bears defenders celebrating with "Menaces of Midway." It's a play on the "Monsters of the Midway" moniker that has described some of the best defenses in franchise history.
