The Bears have scored the most points in the fourth quarter in the nfl over the past two weeks. After trailing 16-0 at halftime, Williams and the Bears' offense fought back, scoring 20 points in the second half, including 13 in the final period. Last Sunday against the Vikings, Williams led the Bears to 17 points in the fourth quarter, including 11 in the final :22 of regulation, to force overtime.

The Bears defense has posted red zone results this season, tied with the Steelers and Colts for the most in the NFL. Late in the first half, Lions quarterback Jared Goff connected with running back Jahmyr Gibbs for a 13-yard gain that reached the Chicago 6 at cornerback Tyrique Stevenson hit the ball out. Defensive tackle Gervon Dexter Sr. caught the ball out of the air, giving the Lions their first home loss in exactly a year.

The Bears now have 19 takeaways this season, tied for the sixth-most in the league. They also have the third-highest turnover margin in the NFL at +10.
