The best third-down defence against the best run game

Chicago leads the NFL in rushing yards and in third-down defence. Those two things together are why a team with a 91.0 passer rating is 5-2.

Seattle matches the Bears almost line for line: 3.48 a carry conceded, a 72.6 opponent rating and 28.0% allowed on third down, each among the two or three best in football.

Where Seattle leaks is the red zone, at 78.6% conceded. Against a Chicago team that runs it better than anyone, that is the number that decides this.

Players to watch

  • Caleb Williams (CHI, QB): Five touchdown passes to one interception at 105.6.
  • D’Andre Swift (CHI, RB): Fronts the most productive ground game going.
  • Jaxon Smith-Njigba (SEA, WR): First read in a passing game worth 1,607 yards.
  • Sam Darnold (SEA, QB): Eight touchdown passes and eight interceptions at 80.5.
