Reliving memorable home openers

With the Chicago Cubs recording a dramatic comeback win in their home opener Monday night over the Cincinnati Reds, we take a look back at some memorable Bears home openers:

Bears 41, Colts 21

The Bears ruined quarterback Andrew Luck's NFL debut, generating five takeaways and scoring on five straight possessions at one point—not counting a kneel-down at the end of the first half. Tim Jennings intercepted two Luck passes and deflected another throw that Chris Conte picked off in the end zone. Making their Bears debuts, Brandon Marshall caught nine passes for 119 yards and one touchdown and rookie second-round draft pick Alshon Jeffery hauled in a 42-yard TD pass from Jay Cutler.
