Despite facing injury concerns of cornerbacks Tyrique Stevenson and Kyler Gordon during Sunday's matchup against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, the Chicago Bears ultimately had the last laugh. Chicago secured another important victory at Soldier Field, with Cairo Santos delivering a clutch game-winning field goal in the closing seconds to seal the 27-24 win.
Following their stellar win over the Seattle Seahawks, the Bears entered their Week 9 matchup looking to extend their winning streak. They initially appeared comfortable against Tampa Bay.
However, Tampa Bay gradually fought its way back into the game, eventually completing its comeback to level the score at 24-24 in the closing moments. With the outcome hanging in the balance, Chicago needed one final offensive drive to prevent the hard-fought win from slipping away.
Santos then rose to the occasion, converting the decisive field goal in the closing seconds to secure a dramatic victory for the Bears.
