This player stepped up BIG TIME against Buffalo in Jack Sanborn's absence
The Bears signed LB Nicholas Morrow this off-season as a free agent. While Morrow wasn't the flashiest signing this summer, he has been outstanding with his new team. Saturday was a further example of that since he played a fantastic game in Jack Sanborn's replacement.
Check this out:
«Honestly, he just overthrew it, and I was there,» Morrow said matter-of-factly in the Bears' locker room after the game. «We were really doubling the back in that situation with the backers, and he overthrew it. That's it.»
The Bears held Allen and the explosive Bills' offense � which came in ranked second in yards and fourth in scoring � to 172 passing yards. Buffalo routed the Bears for 254 rushing yards, the third time an opponent has surpassed the 250-yard mark on the ground against the Bears' 27th-ranked rush defense.
Morrow described the breakdowns that led to the pair of long touchdown runs the Bills scored that essentially put the game away.
«On one of them, we had a pressure on,» Morrow explained. «So sometimes, when you have pressures on, and they pull, you're a man shortso it was a good call, honestly. And then the other onethat was a misfit.»
