Fourth Quarter
Bears lead 48-10 with about two minutes left. I think this one is over. Be on the look out for Patti’s post game recap!
Bucs get a TD pass from Winston to Cameron Brate.
Bears lead 45-3
Third Quarter
Sid Luckman holds the #Bears record for TD passes in a game with 7. He did it in 1943 against the Brooklyn Dodgers.

Eddie Jackson with an interception.
And a 4th TD pass and a 5th TD pass....
Trubisky to Cohen for his third TD pass of the day!
The Bears lead the game 14-0 at the start of the 2nd.
First Quarter
Trubisky to Robinson for the TD!
Akiem Hicks sacks Fitzpatrick and the Bears get the ball back.

This is your open thread for the game, if need be we’ll create a second half overflow open thread later.
Here the inactives for the Bears:
WR Anthony Miller
CB Prince Amukamara
CB Marcus Cooper
OLB Isaiah Irving
OLB Kylie Fitts
OT Rashaad Coward
DL Nick Williams
This means that rookie wide receiver Javon Wims is active.
Here are the inactives for the Bucs:
DT Beau Allen
G Alex Cappa
QB Ryan Griffin
OL Michael Liedtke
DE Noah Spence
S Jordan Whitehead
RB Shaun Wilson
This means that rookie DT Vita Vea will be active for the first time this year.
Sounds like Ryan Fitzpatrick is going to be on a short leash today.

If he is replaced mid-game, it will be the 3rd time in 4 games the #Bears defense has seen more than one QB in a game.
PREGAME
Brad Biggs of the Chicago Tribune is calling this Sunday’s game against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, the Chicago Bears’ most important once since the 2013 finale. In case you’ve forgotten, that week 17 contest against the Packers was essentially a playoff game with the winner taking the NFC North title. The Bears lost in heartbreaking fashion and fell to 8-8, and they haven’t won more than six games a season ever since.
A win on Sunday will put the Bears at 3-1 (and still in first place in the NFC North) heading into their bye.
Here’s everything you need to know about this Sunday’s game.
