At one point, it could have been said that neither the Chicago Bears nor the Washington Redskins wanted to take advantage of the other's mistakes. Well, the Bears found a way to force their will upon the Redskins, by turning the ball over on back-to-back-to-back-to-back possessions in the fourth quarter.

The defense looked good, but could not overcome the mistakes of the offense. Sound familiar Chicago fans?
