The Bears had a 10-6 at halftime on a cold day at Soldier Field, but Bills running backs Devin Singletary and James Cook turned it on in the second half.

In the second half however, the Bills dominated the Bears in the trenches and completely stuffed the running game. So the Bills moved to a more run-heavy approach in the second half and easily put the game away from there. The defensive line was unable to get any penetration in the backfield, and the linebackers behind them couldn’t catch either Devin Singletary or James Cook at the second level. He rose to the occasion and was a major reason why the Bears did well to limit the Bills’ high-flying passing attack. Early in the game it became clear that throwing the ball around a breezy Soldier Field was going to be tough. He took advantage of a rare poor throw from Josh Allen, made a good leaping catch and added a good return to set the offense up on their 34-yard line instead of backed up against their own endzone.

Devin Singletary and James Cook ran for long touchdowns in the third quarter, and the Buffalo Bills clinched the AFC East title by beating the Bears 35-13 ...

The Patriots had the ball on the Cincinnati 5 with just over a minute to play when Rhamondre Stevenson was hit by Vonn Bell and fumbled, leading to Josh Tupou's recovery. Cincinnati led 22-18 and was facing third down with less than four minutes to play when Ja'Marr Chase caught a short pass from Burrow and was stripped by Matt Judon. Singletary scored on a 33-yard run on the opening drive of the second half and finished with 106 yards in the game. In fact, it had been so cold the tarp was frozen to the field when workers tried to remove it three hours before kickoff. The Bengals (11-4) won their seventh straight game and remained in the driver's seat for a second consecutive AFC North title despite nearly blowing a 22-0 halftime lead. Tee Higgins had eight catches for 128 yards and a TD. And the NFL's leading receiver had room to take it all the way before being tripped after a 17-yard gain. Burrow finished 40 of 52 for 375 yards and two interceptions. Allen finished with 172 yards, two TD passes and two interceptions while facing a short-handed secondary. It highlighted an otherwise subpar outing that helped the Bills (12-3) secure their third straight division title with their sixth win in a row. Chicago's Cairo Santos kicked a field goal early in the fourth quarter that Nicholas Morrow set up by picking off an ill-advised pass. Buffalo remained on track for the No.

Buffalo Bills takeaways from Week 16 win over the Chicago Bears, 35-13, including QB Josh Allen, Justin Fields.

Down 7-0, the Bills scored a touchdown and Bass missed the extra point. Special teams problems bled all over the unit a bit. His struggled made the Bills decide to go for two-point conversions afterward. Not against the Bears. At least, not like he was early in 2022. Allen forced things too much, leading to his 15-for-26 overall day passing with only 172 yards.

Allen finished with 172 yards, two TD passes and two interceptions even though he was facing a short-handed secondary. "The reality of it is I'm not going to be running for like 100 yards a game," Fields said. Chicago's Cairo Santos kicked a field goal early in the fourth quarter that Nicholas Morrow set up by picking off an ill-advised pass. Dante Pettis had a touchdown catch for Chicago. But Buffalo owns the head-to-head tiebreaker after defeating the Chiefs in October. Sometimes the flags are blowing one way. He now has 174 touchdowns -- 135 passing, 38 rushing and one receiving. Chicago's Justin Fields threw for 119 yards and a touchdown. 1 seed in the AFC.
