Instant analysis of Bears’ 17-13 victory over Giants in Week 2

The Bears fought off a late Giants rally to improve to 2-0 for the first time since 2013 and will visit the Falcons next Sunday.

The Chicago Bears got off to a hot start against the New York Giants as they went up 17-0 going into halftime, but the Giants would score 13 unanswered points in the second half. The Bears were able to hold off the Giants on a late defensive stand in the final seconds, which gave Bears fans a scare in the final seconds for the second straight week.

If it was a tale of two halves for the Bears, but none more notable than quarterback Mitchell Trubisky. The Bears quarterback threw two touchdowns in the first half, but followed up in the second half with two interceptions.

The Bears pass rush improved compared to last week against the Lions as they sacked Giants quarterback Daniel Jones four times. The Bears were able to recover a fumble and force an interception.

For the second straight week for the Bears, it came down to the final seconds of the game. Bears kicker Cairo Santos missed a field goal to put them up seven, then the Giants drove to the 10-yard line for one final play.

Jones stepped up in the pocket, moved to his right, threw a pass intended to Golden Tate in the endzone and was incomplete as time expired.

The Bears improve to 2-0 for the first time since 2013 and will visit Atlanta to take on the Falcons next Sunday.
