I don't know if I've ever seen so many flags!

What an ugly game. Final tally: 26 penalties for 198 yards. Six of those penalties gave the other team a first down. The Bears got almost as many first downs by penalty (4) as they did by running the ball (5). In total there were 113 plays, so pretty much one play in four drew a flag.
