Chase Daniel threw for 195 yards and a touchdown after Mitch Trubisky exited with a left shoulder injury, and Chicago swarmed NFL rushing leader Dalvin Cook in a 16-6 victory over the Minnesota Vikings on Sunday.
The Bears (3-1) held Cook to 35 yards on 14 attempts after he ran for at least 110 in the first three games. The Monsters of the Midway also held a big edge in time of possession (35:27 to 24:33) on the way to their third straight win.
Kirk Cousins was 27 of 36 for 233 yards and got sacked six times as the Vikings (2-2) lost to Chicago on the road for the 16th time in 19 games.
Cook, who came in with 375 yards rushing, spoiled the Bears’ bid for their first shutout since 2010 when he ran it in from the 2 in the closing minutes.
