The Bears had a chance to put some distance on the Baltimore Ravens backup quarterback Tyler Huntley early in the first quarter, but the offense settled for two short field goals to take a 6-0 lead in the second quarter.

The Ravens went on a run starting in the second quarter, scoring 16 unanswered points before pulling away with a 30-16 win over Chicago in front of 70,045 fans at M&T Bank Stadium.

Chicago lost the game via the metrics that really matter. The Ravens won the turnover battle 1-0.

Caleb Williams’ decision to throw a pass to Rome Odunze in double coverage proved to be a deadly mistake, as Baltimore’s Nate Wiggins intercepted the throw, leading to a touchdown two plays later. The Ravens extended their lead to 23-13 with 8:13 remaining in the fourth quarter.

The Bears were out-penalized, committing 11 penalties for 79 yards to the Ravens six penalties for 45 yards.

During his postgame news conference, Bears head coach Ben Johnson absolved his coaching staff of any blame for the team’s double-digit penalty performance. He sent a warning to Chicago’s team captains that they needed to fix the problem.

“The penalties, to me is what stands out first and foremost,” Johnson said. “We still have some of the pre-snap issues where there’s occasional not getting lined up quite right. There’s occasional, not getting the motion quite right. And so that stuff does, it adds up, and it hurts us…

“And so I think, I really put on the leaders there in that locker room to get this, get this ship going the right direction. In that regard, us coaches, we’ve been pounding that drum that drum now for a while, and we haven’t gotten the results we wanted. So it’s on the leaders here on this team to get us right.

The Bears are giving Johnson $13 million a year to get this right. He can point to the locker room all he likes, but at the end of the day, discipline is on Johnson.

Chicago will next travel to play the Cincinnati Bengals in Week 9.
