LANDOVER, Md. — Three hundred and forty-six days after their last win, the Bears got a reprieve Thursday night.
It came after fits and starts, with a fullback carrying the ball for most of the second half because three running backs were hurt; the defense coming close to blowing another big lead; and a banged-up roster limping to the final gun. But it was a reprieve nonetheless — the final score of 40-20 belying the second half tug-of-war.
The Bears’ franchise-worst 14 game winning streak is over.
