Defensive wins

I used to have a shirt from a basketball camp that said, "Offense wins games. Defense wins championships." While that's one of the stupidest ideas ever created, it was at least slightly true for the Chicago Bears yesterday. And while their game against the Minnesota Vikings wasn't a championship game, the Bears' defense literally won the game. Well, actually it was the defense and the special teams. But no matter how you look at it, it had nothing to do with the offense. Bears quarterback Rex Grossman went 6/19, 34 yards, 0 TDs, and 3 INTs, which, for all intents and purposes, is abysmal. The Bears' offense scored a grand total of 7 of the 23 points in game. Essentially, without the defense and special teams, the Bears would've lost 13-7. But hey, who needs an offense when you consistently win games? #sports
