How the Bears won

• The Bears won their fourth straight game to improve to 4-2 — their longest winning streak since the 2018 NFC North champions closed the regular season with four straight wins. [source]
• Chicago snapped an eight-game losing streak to New Orleans; the Bears had not beaten the Saints since 2008. [source]
• Defensive coordinator Dennis Allen faced the Saints for the first time since they fired him as head coach in November 2024; he had spent 15 of the prior 20 seasons in New Orleans. [source]
• Allen's defense forced four takeaways (three interceptions) and recorded four sacks, giving Chicago 16 takeaways on the season and three-plus in four straight games. [source]
• Montez Sweat's early strip-sack set up the opening field goal, Nahshon Wright's long interception return set up the first touchdown, and Tremaine Edmunds — who also had a sack — sealed it with a fourth-quarter interception of a tipped pass. [source]
• The Bears ran for 222 yards: D'Andre Swift posted a season-high 124 yards and a touchdown (his second straight 100-yard game) and rookie Kyle Monangai added a career-high 81 yards and a score. [source]
• Caleb Williams had a quiet day — 15-of-26 for 172 yards and an interception — and admitted afterward the win came without his best effort. [source]
• Saints QB Spencer Rattler threw three interceptions (20-of-32, 233 yards); Chris Olave caught both New Orleans touchdowns (5 catches, 98 yards) as the Saints fell to 1-6, their worst start since 1999. [source]
• Jake Moody, filling in for Cairo Santos for a second straight week, kicked field goals including a 33-yarder that made it 26-14; a Saints false start on a fourth-down goal-line snap had forced the Bears to settle for three earlier. [source]
• Jaquan Brisker and Kyler Gordon each notched their first sacks of the season on the same drive; CB Tyrique Stevenson (shoulder) and TE Cole Kmet (back) left the game. [source]

The chant after this one

Every win ends the same way: Johnson gathers the room, calls for quiet, and leads the four lines one at a time with the whole team answering. This was chant No. 5 of the Johnson era.

Game ball: Dennis Allen. See the full tracker.

• Johnson ticked off the defense's numbers — four takeaways, four sacks, 44 rushing yards allowed — then announced he had only one game ball and shouted 'Dennis Allen, come here!' Players swarmed Allen, who danced in the middle of his defense. [source]
• With players chanting 'speech!', Allen told the room 'sometimes you ain't good enough for somewhere else — that's perfectly fine, I love being here,' and closed with 'four ain't enough! Moving on to the next one!' [source]
• Allen told ChicagoBears.com afterward, 'It's why you coach,' describing the locker-room bond as the point of the job; Brisker said Allen was 'turnt' and out of his element, and DT Chris Williams and LB D'Marco Jackson said the raw speech pulled the defense closer. [source]
• Allen had publicly downplayed the matchup as 'another game' all week, but Kevin Byard said it clearly meant a lot to him and credited Allen's game plan for putting Brisker and Gordon in position to make plays. [source]
• The Bears' official speech clip for this game is titled 'Quiet, our show is on' and carries the #goodbetterbest tag; its thumbnail catches the room mid-chant with the 'Never let it rest.' line on screen. [source]
