A wet and wild Monday night game between the Chicago Bears and Washington Commanders turned into a thriller between two of the NFL’s oldest franchises.

Commanders quarterback Jayden Daniels fumbled a handoff late in the fourth quarter and allowed the Bears’ defense to recover. Caleb Williams and D’Andre Swift led the offense down the field to set up a Jake Moody field goal attempt. It was Moody’s first day on the roster as the team signed him to replace an injured Cairo Santos.

Moody, with three seconds left and a steady mist coming down, nailed a 38-yard field goal to give the Bears the 25-24 win. Chicago improved to 3-2 with the win and the Commanders fell to 3-3.

The Bears jumped out to an early 13-0 lead in the first half. Moody was seemingly in good form. He nailed two field goals and Caleb Williams ran for a touchdown to start the second quarter.

The Commanders cut into the Bears’ lead when Daniels threw a 22-yard touchdown pass to Chris Moore. Washington got more points on the board after an eight-play, 25-yard drive in the third quarter, which ended with a Matt Gay field goal.

After Moody hit his third field goal of the night, the Bears’ offense went quiet.

Daniels led back-to-back scoring drives at the end of the third quarter and to start the fourth. He found Luke McCaffrey for a 33-yard touchdown pass and then fired a 6-yard touchdown to Zach Ertz.

Williams and the Bears didn’t stay down too long. The second-year quarterback hit Swift on a short pass. Swift made a few Commanders defenders miss and scampered for a 55-yard touchdown. Chicago missed out on a 2-point conversion and was down two points.

Moody was on point with his field-goal tries, despite one getting blocked.

He was cut by the San Francisco 49ers only a few weeks into the 2025 season, despite having a place in the record books during Super Bowl LVIII.

Moody turned around and etched his name into the Bears’ record books, making the most field goals in a Bears debut with four, according to ESPN.

"It’s always good to have a fresh start. I always believed in myself, believed in my teammates. Shoutout to (long snapper Scott Daly) and (holder Tory Taylor). They made the operation really easy on me. The same with the (offensive) line up front, protecting great on that last one. You can’t draw it up any better," he told ESPN’s Lisa Salters.

Williams was 17-of-29 with 252 passing yards and a touchdown pass. He completed passes to eight different receivers. Swift led the team with two catches for 67 yards. Luther Burden III had four catches for 51 yards.

Swift had 14 carries for 108 yards as well.

Daniels finished 19-of-26 with 211 passing yards, three touchdown passes and an interception. The Bears’ defense had three takeaways.

The Atlanta Falcons used their bye week to find the right answers for the Buffalo Bills, who they beat 24-14 on "Monday Night Football."

The Falcons improved to 3-2 on the season, while the Bills have now lost two straight after starting the season 4-0. 

While there were explosive offensive plays that contributed to this Falcons victory, their defense being able to handle Bills quarterback Josh Allen was just as important at Mercedes-Benz Stadium on Monday night. Allen was sacked four times, the most by any team this season, as the Falcons didn’t just get pressure in the backfield, but made sure he couldn’t escape for big rushing yards.

However, the highlight reel is surely going to have the Falcons’ offensive stars, running back Bijan Robinson and wide receiver Drake London, leading the way after their generous contributions to that side of the ball. 

Robinson rushed for 170 yards on 19 carries with an 81-yard touchdown that blew this game wide open in favor of the home team. The play came right after Allen was sacked for a 15-yard loss on third down, forcing a punt by the Bills. Robinson wasted no time, finding a hole at the line of scrimmage and bouncing out to the right where safety Cole Bishop couldn’t get him out of bounds, and it was off to the races. 

DRAKE MAYE LEADS PATRIOTS TO UPSET VICTORY OVER PREVIOUSLY UNDEFEATED BILLS

But before Robinson’s magic, London showcased his strength when he caught a nine-yard pass from Penix near the goal line and reached his long arms across with the ball for six points, all while being tackled. That gave the Falcons the lead back, which they originally had thanks to Tyler Allgeier’s first carry of the game going for a 21-yard touchdown on the opening drive. 

Allen was able to also find Dawson Knox for an opening-drive touchdown, but they had to punt four straight times before he threw an interception near the end of the first half. It was an uncharacteristic performance for the Bills’ offense, but their defense made adjustments in the second half to keep them in the game. 

Allen and the Bills started the third quarter with the touchdown drive they needed, as Ray Davis caught a short pass from his quarterback and took it 16 yards for the score. But once again, the Bills’ offense stalled as the Falcons continued to come up with stops. 

With a 21-14 lead in the fourth quarter, Michael Penix Jr. and his offense were looking to put a seal on their victory, and they did so with a drive that took up 5 minutes of clock and ended with a Parker Romo field goal to make it a two-possession game. 

Allen tried for a miracle on the ensuing drive, but he was picked off after a deflected pass in the red zone as the Falcons celebrated their win. 

In the box score, Penix was 20-of-32 for 250 yards with his touchdown pass to London, who led the game with 158 yards on 10 catches. Robinson also added 68 yards on six catches to total over 230 scrimmage yards in a brilliant game. 

For the Bills, Allen was just 15-of-26 with two touchdowns and two interceptions. James Cook was kept relatively silent in this game with 87 yards on 17 carries.
