Saints WR Chris Olave had his first career two-TD game against the Bears
Now that's more like it. Chris Olave tied his career-long reception and scored twice against the Bears, his first game with multiple touchdowns:
The Bears' game-winning drive was set up by a Jayden Daniels fumble on a hand-off to Jacory Crosley-Merritt with 3:10 left. On third-and-1, Daniels mishandled the exchange, and the Bears recovered at their own 44. D'Andre Swift took over from there, rushing for 34 yards on the final drive to set up Moody's kick.
Nevertheless, the defense kept the team above water early. The unit allowed just three yards to the Bears on the first two drives of the game. After Jeanty's fumble, Maxx Crosby tipped a Caleb Williams pass at the line of scrimmage to come down with the defensive end's first career interception.
