Bears’ worst 10 defensive players in Week 16, per PFF

The Chicago Bears were defeated by the Buffalo Bills, 35-13, on Sunday to drop to 3-12 on the season.

It was a tale of two halves for the Bears, who carried a 10-6 lead into halftime against one of the NFL’s best teams. But the Bills outscored them 29-3 in the second half, including two touchdown drives to open the third quarter, to cruise to an easy win.
