Knights in the NFL: Week 4 Recap

NFL week 4 couldn’t possibly top Week 3, could it?

Michael Burton, Marcus Cooper, and Andrew DePaola played hated rival Green Bay on Thursday Night Football. Despite an overall OK effort by the Bears pass defense Cooper (1 tackle) was victimized badly on the longest gain of the day by Jordy Nelson where safety help came too late. Burton saw little action as the Bears offense (4 turnovers) was in catch up mode from early in the second quarter, ultimately falling 35-14. Due to the turnovers, the Bears only punted three times, dropping two inside the 20.
