In a clash of rookie quarterbacks, Drake Maye led the New England Patriots to a decisive 19-3 victory over the Chicago Bears. The Patriots' defense dominated, sacking Caleb Williams nine times and limiting the Bears to just 142 yards.

Maye's performance included a touchdown pass and an interception, while Williams struggled again, marking his third consecutive disappointing game. The loss extended Chicago's woes, prompting fans to call for the dismissal of head coach Matt Eberflus.
