The Houston Texans defeated the Chicago Bears 19-13, improving to 2-0 while the Bears fell to 1-1. Texans quarterback C.J. Stroud threw for 260 yards and a touchdown, but the standout performance came from their defense, which sacked Bears rookie quarterback Caleb Williams seven times and intercepted him twice. Bears wide receiver DJ Moore expressed frustration over the offensive struggles but emphasized the need to support Williams. Despite a strong defensive effort, including holding the Texans to only three second-half points, the Bears' offensive line struggled to protect Williams. The Texans now hold a two-game lead in the AFC South, while the Bears look to rebound against the Colts next week.
