10 thoughts after the Chicago Bears beat up the Las Vegas Raiders at the line of scrimmage and got a precise outing from undrafted rookie free agent Tyson Bagent on their way to a commanding 30-12 victory Sunday.
The win at Soldier Field snapped a 10-game home losing streak. It was the second time Bagent, the Division II kid from Martinsburg, W.Va., was asked to throw on third down. The first third down, at the end of the opening possession, was a screen pass that D’Onta Foreman mishandled, maybe the only miscue of the day for the hard-chugging running back. On the next series, the Bears faced third-and-5 at their own 49-yard line.
“To me, that was really the beginning,” Hiatt said. “That dude had studied more film and had been more focused mentally that he could just go out there and execute.” How much did the win in Bagent’s first start mean to Hiatt? The coach sent a video via text message of his three sons, Blake, Neil and Zack, watching the Bears game from their home Sunday with his wife Paige. They are ecstatic after Bagent’s 10-yard run that set up the game’s first touchdown and Neil, 7, is wearing a Bears T-shirt.
