Summary

  • Chicago escaped with a 24-22 Sunday Night Football win in Week 9, handing Tampa Bay a loss despite a late push.
  • Four Buccaneers interceptions kept the game within reach, but Tampa Bay's offense could not match the Bears after falling behind 14-0 early.
  • That combination left the Buccaneers frustrated after a game that showed defensive playmaking against one of the NFC's stronger teams but exposed offensive limitations.
  • The result also feeds into the NFC playoff picture, with another key conference matchup still to come Monday night when Minnesota faces Buffalo.
