For generations, the Bears’ calling card has been their defense. Even as they drafted quarterback Caleb Williams with the No. 1 overall pick this year, that did not change on Sunday.

With a blocked punt returned for a touchdown and a pick six, Chicago’s special teams and defense led the club to a 24-17 victory over Tennessee to open the 2024 season.

Tennessee raced out to a 17-0 lead, with the team’s defense holding Chicago to just a field goal in the first half.

Josh Allen willed the Bills to a season-opening 34-28 victory over the Cardinals on Sunday. The Bills defense held onto it. Kyler Murray got the Cardinals to the Bills 29, where they faced a fourth-and-seven, but his final pass fell incomplete at the 2 with 26 seconds left.

Allen completed 18 of 23 passes for 232 yards and two touchdowns. He also rushed for 39 yards and two touchdowns on nine carries. He lost a fumble on a strip-sack on the third play of the game but was money after that.

Stefon Diggs had six receptions for 33 yards, with two touchdowns covering 9 and 2. His final touchdown came on fourth down and gave the Texans a 29-20 lead with 4:42 left.

This is kind of how Diggs’ season was with the Bills last year. He’s lost that explosiveness. He’s an elite route runner and is a terror on the shorter routes and in goal to go situations.

Strong disagree

i agree with the sentiment of the post, but not the vocabulary used.

we have a rule against profanity, and another rule against masking the profanity as if the mask is not also profane.

we have no need for vulgarity when many other adjectives and nouns can be better used.
