Chicago Bears beat New England Patriots 30-24 in a week 7 game at Soldier Field, largely due to Cairo Santos' career-long 58-yard field goal. The Bears' lead was six points late in the fourth quarter when quarterback Caleb Williams was sacked and the Patriots' final timeout came at a cost.

The win moves the Bears to 5-2 on the season.
