The New England Patriots got back to basics in their win against the Chicago Bears Sunday, getting defensive and running the ball.<\/p>\n

The Patriots improved to 3-7 on the year with the win and put together one of their best showings of the year. Sunday marked the first time all year that New England won a game by more than a three-point margin.<\/p>\n

The Patriots made an impression, especially defensively, by shutting down No. 1 pick Caleb Williams at Soldier Field. Here\u2018s a look at what the national reaction is following Sunday\u2019s game:<\/p>\n

Patrick Finley, Chicago Sun-Times<\/p>\n

“The Bears reached the low point of the Matt Eberflus era Sunday, and that\u2019s saying something, given that he once lost 14 games in a row.”<\/p>\n

Paul Sullivan, Chicago Tribune<\/p>\n

\"Patriots<\/p>\n

\u201cWe stared at our TVs in disbelief, trying to process the unthinkable. How did this happen? Why did we not see it coming?\u201d<\/p>\n

Conor Orr, Sports Illustrated<\/p>\n

\u201cIf one were to put together a package of broadcast shots that spell out rock bottom for a franchise, it would be the troika of beleaguered fans shaking their heads before exiting the game in drove … Such was life for the Chicago Bears.\u201d<\/p>\n

MBoneHD, Content Creator<\/p>\n

\u201cWhat am I watching!? … Nobody. Nobody has it worse than Chicago Bears fans.\u201d<\/p>\n

David Axelrod, former White House Chief of Staff<\/p>\n

\u201cIf the (Bears) came out of halftime with an entirely new coaching staff, I think it would provoke a loud and sustained ovation.<\/p>\n

\u201c… Sadly, this didn\u2019t happen. But great news for Patriots fans!”<\/p>\n

Chad Finn, Boston Globe<\/p>\n

\u201cThe truth is this: Maye played better with less to work with. He played with much more poise. And he\u2019s nine months younger than Williams. Sure looks to me like the Patriots got the better quarterback.\u201d<\/p>\n

Mark Daniels, MassLive<\/p>\n

“This Patriots rebuild is in the infancy stages. There\u2019s a reason why they\u2019re 3-7. There\u2019s also a method to this madness. By focusing on young players this year, the Patriots hope they are building a solid foundation for the future.”<\/p>\n

Jon Greenberg, The Athletic<\/p>\n

\u201cIs Week 10 too early or too late for a \u2018Fire everybody and let God sort it out\u2019 appeal? Depends on your perspective, I guess.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis can\u2019t continue. The Chicago Bears can\u2019t go on like this<\/i>. They can\u2019t keep producing this brand of lousy, uninspired, miserable football. It\u2019s just not productive. Not healthy. Not justifiable.”<\/p>\n

Dan Wiederer, Chicago Tribune<\/p>\n

\u201cAt some point, the quest to find answers must be accompanied by actual answers. The Bears can\u2019t keep producing this brand of lousy, uninspired, miserable football. They can\u2019t go on like this. This<\/i> just can\u2019t continue.”<\/p>\n

Albert Breer, Sports Illustrated<\/p>\n

“Drake Maye clearly outplayed Caleb Williams on Sunday, for what it\u2019s worth.”<\/p>\n

Kevin Fishbain, The Athletic<\/p>\n

\u201cHow did the Chicago Bears get here? … No one in the locker room will play the blame game, but to lose 19-3 at home to the New England Patriots is an institutional failure.\u201d<\/p>\n

Nate Davis, USA TODAY<\/p>\n

“The Chicago Bears have lost three straight since their bye week and are in danger of breaking rookie QB Caleb Williams.”<\/p>\n

Karen Guregian, MassLive<\/p>\n

\u201cBetween the lefty pass, extending plays all over the field, burying defenses with his scrambling, and his rocket arm, Maye gives the Patriots, a team that lacks stars, one who moves the needle. That\u2019s why it\u2019s easier to forgive the mistakes. Thus far, the magic has outweighed the miscues.”<\/p>\n

Mark Potash, Chicago Sun-Times<\/p>\n

\u201cThis can\u2019t be happening again, can it? Caleb Williams looked like a shell of the player he was just four weeks ago in London. … Williams has not thrown an interception in three games of regression, so it could be worse. But he looks like a quarterback who is one step from disaster.<\/p>\n

Mike Sando, The Athletic<\/p>\n

\u201cThe questions flew toward Chicago Bears coach Matt Eberflus like poison-tipped arrows after the previously 2-7 New England Patriots embarrassed his team 19-3 at Soldier Field in Week 10.<\/p>\n

\u201c\u2018How do you defend your work as head coach when it looks this bad?\u2019 one reporter asked.\u201d<\/p>\n

Jason Lieser, Chicago Sun-Times<\/p>\n

The Bears don\u2019t need to spend another day figuring out if Matt Eberflus is the right coach. If it wasn\u2019t already clear, that question was answered conclusively Sunday.<\/p>\n

Matt Vautour, MassLive<\/p>\n

“There\u2019s nothing wrong with losing to get a franchise quarterback, whether that\u2019s a strategy or just happens organically. But it looks like the Patriots have their guy in Maye. Now it\u2019s all about building around him. Building a roster, building a culture and building an understanding and feel for how to win.”<\/p>\n

Adam Jahns, The Athletic<\/p>\n

“An unfortunate reality is taking hold: Williams wasn\u2019t as ready for the NFL as everyone thought, and the Bears weren\u2019t ready for him, either.”<\/p>\n

Andrew Callahan, Boston Herald<\/p>\n

\u201cMaye, for the most part, has shed the reckless hero-ball that likewise defined most of his final collegiate season. Sure, he tossed a silly interception in the first quarter and almost ripped another in the fourth. But Maye\u2019s development is real, and it is spectacular.\u201d<\/p>\n

Courtney Cronin, ESPN<\/p>\n

\u201cThe Bears overhauled their offense (new coordinator, QB, RB and 2 WRs), but it is statistically worse than it was in 2023 in a handful of categories. While the organization is trying to break the cycle of prevalent turnover when developing a young quarterback, it needs to determine whether it has the right coaches to guide Williams.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
