The Chicago Bears offense has been virtually ineffective in the first half. But the Bears defense has recorded two interceptions in the first half, which is one more than the total number of first downs by Chicago’s offense.
When the Titans were driving down the field on their second series, linebacker Danny Trevathan picked off Titans quarterback Matt Barkley on Chicago’s 16-yard line, halting any potential points.
