Scoring summary
Q1, 7:44 remaining
Bears 7, Vikings 0
Tarik Cohen catches a 10-yard pass from Chase Daniel (Eddy Pineiro kicks PAT) [14 plays, 75 yards, 7:16 time of possession]
By a nub: Fresh in for Mitchell Trubisky, Daniel was able to barely get a first down on a QB sneak to the Minnesota 42. It was the second consecutive sneak by Daniel, who needed 1 yard total on both attempts. The turf where the Vikings defensive line planted on the fourth-down play gave out, leaving a gigantic divot that Eric Kendricks helped repair. Officials measured, and the ball made it past the chain by a nub.
Q2, 0:00 remaining
Bears 10, Vikings 0
Pineiro kicks a 25-yard field goal [16 plays, 72 yards, 6:36]
Key conversion: The Bears were able to convert a fourth-and-3 from the Minnesota 38 with a 5-yard pass to Anthony Miller. The play occurred after Minnesota burned a timeout to avoid having 12 men on the field.
Chicago initially sent Pineiro and punter/holder Pat O’Donnell on the field, appearing like it would attempt a 56-yard field goal. After the Vikings timeout, the Bears decided to go for it and were able to burn the final 2:02 of the first half.
Q3, 12:47 remaining
Bears 13, Vikings 0
Pineiro kicks a 38-yard field goal [4 plays, minus-4 yards, 2:07]
Takeaway right away: The Bears started their first possession of the second half in the red zone at the Minnesota 16 after forcing a fumble by Kirk Cousins during a sack of the quarterback on the first snap of the third quarter.
Q3, 3:04 remaining
Bears 16, Vikings 0
Pineiro kicks a 30-yard field goal [9 plays, 67 yards, 4:59]
Big, then small: The drive started with a 37-yard pass from Daniel to Javon Wims, quickly moving from the Chicago 21 to the Minnesota 42. The Bears didn’t have a play gain more than 7 yards on the rest of the possession.
Q4, 2:58 remaining
Bears 16, Vikings 6
Dalvin Cook rushes for a 2-yard touchdown (2-point conversion pass no good) [13 plays, 92 yards, 4:08]
Firsts for Bisi: Rookie Bisi Johnson recorded the first two receptions of his career during the possession for gains of 9 and 16.
