Kyle Monangai just punched in his second touchdown of the afternoon, pushing the Bears up 20-6 with less than three minutes left in the third quarter. This dude is absolutely running wild and Chicago is eating up the clock right now.

Monangai’s Truck Stick is Unstoppable

Monangai isn’t just scoring, he’s grinding. He’s already stacked up 17 carries for 76 yards, just absolutely wearing down the Jets defense. And it’s not just the run game. Quarterback Tyson Bagent is looking super sharp, slinging it for 225 yards on 21-of-27 passing. The Bears offense has had zero trouble moving the ball, which is why they’re up by so much. They’re just flat-out dominating the clock and the field.

Jets Can’t Find a Spark, Even with Turnover Help

Meanwhile, the Jets offense is just sputtering, stuck at a pathetic 79 total yards. They’ve only managed to get on the board thanks to two Jason Sanders field goals, both coming off turnovers. The first was after a Minkah Fitzpatrick “streak-busting interception”. Then, in the third quarter, D’Andre Swift lost a fumble that bizarrely enough, set up their second field goal after giving the Jets the ball deep in Chicago territory. Even with those breaks, they just can’t get anything going in the end zone. If they want any shot at getting to 2-2 on the season, they better find some kind of spark, and fast.

The clock is ticking down in the third quarter, and with the Bears up big, the Jets are in a seriously deep hole. They need to turn this thing around in a hurry if they want to salvage anything from this game. It’s a tough look for New York right now.
