From the Bears weekly
Fourth and one at the Jets one, twenty-seven seconds left in the first quarter, no score. Chicago had already been here once. Its opening drive went fourteen plays from its own six to the Jets one, and replay took two D'Andre Swift touchdowns away, the second on fourth and one, and the Jets took over at their own one. This time Kyle Monangai went three yards to the one on second down, was stopped for no gain on third, and on fourth and one went behind the right guard and in. By expected points added, what a snap was worth given the down, the distance and the field position, measured against what that situation was already worth, that run was plus two point two. By win probability, the model's read on each team's chance of winning at that moment, it was about seven points. The Bears led for the remaining forty-five minutes and beat the Jets twenty-three to twelve at home. They had the ball for about forty-three of the sixty minutes, and the Jets ran thirty-two pass and rush plays all day. Tyson Bagent, who threw nine passes in the first three weeks, threw every Bears pass.
