Heroes, zeros and the full blitz from the Giants’ 24-20 loss to the Bears at Soldier Field on Sunday:
Hero
Caleb Williams survived a bunch of reckless throws without an interception, throwing for 220 yards and running for 63 more by spinning out of tackles.
He had the game-winning 17-yard touchdown run and set up the previous touchdown with a scramble down to the 2.
Zero
Brian Daboll made just about every wrong coin-flip decision — bypassing a 37-yard field goal in the first quarter and then kicking a 19-yard field goal early in the fourth.
The offense went into a shell without Jaxson Dart.
Unsung hero
Cut by the Texans earlier this season, C.J. Gardner-Johnson led the Bears with nine tackles, two sacks and a forced fumble.
Key stat
10: Consecutive road losses by the Giants — tying a franchise record.
Quote
“We needed a touchdown there.”
— Russell Wilson on the Giants settling for a field goal to take a 20-10 lead that evaporated over the final 10:19 remaining
