The New Orleans Saints were absolutely dominant defensively against the Bears, and if they’re going to continue to advance, it’ll be due to their elite defense.
Against the Chicago Bears, the Saints gave up three meaningful points.
Taking on a team with a red-hot offense despite their quarterback being Mitchell Trubisky, the Saints limited David Montgomery and completely took both Chicago’s passing and rushing attack out of sync.
