The Monster of the Midway have returned

The Bears currently rank fourth in the NFL and second in the NFC in fewest points allowed per game (17.4) and has held opponents out of the end zone on its opening drives in 20 straight games dating to last season.

They are not quite the ’85 Bears, widely considered the greatest defense in NFL history, but they could be good enough to stifle this Giants’ offense, which averages 20.3 points per game.
