After no passing touchdowns the first two games of the year, Trubisky connected with Taylor Gabriel on three of them in the second quarter alone.<\/p>\n<p class=\"STND-STND BodyText\">The 2017 second overall pick looked at ease with a fast-paced approach and picked apart Washington\u2019s porous defense on 25 of 31 passing for 231 yards. It was the offensive explosion Trubisky predicted would happen this week.<\/p>\n<p class=\"STND-STND BodyText\">\u201cIt just felt like the tempo helped us out a little bit,\u201d Trubisky said. \u201cIf everyone just continues to stick together and execute our plays and believe and just go out there and make plays, it\u2019ll be a fun offense.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"STND-STND BodyText\">Chicago (2-1) had just a 1-yard touchdown run to show for its first two games, and Trubisky entered the night with a completion percentage of 58.3 and ranked near the bottom of the league in yards per attempt. Facing the Redskins (0-3) brought out some of the best in Trubisky.<\/p>\n<p class=\"STND-STND BodyText\">\u201cHat\u2019s off to him,\u201d said Washington linebacker Cole Holcomb, who was roommates with Trubisky at North Carolina. \u201cI always knew he was a good quarterback. He struggled a little bit, but he came out and he played a good game.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"STND-STND BodyText\">Trubisky had 173 yards in the first half alone before throwing an interception at the goal line in the third quarter.<\/p>\n<p class=\"STND-STND BodyText\">With scores of 1, 3 and 36 yards, Gabriel joined Mike Ditka in 1963 as the only Bears receivers with three TD catches in the first half of a game. Gabriel made six catches for 75 yards before leaving in the second half with a concussion.<\/p>\n<p class=\"STND-STND BodyText\">The Bears took advantage of five turnovers by Redskins quarterback Case Keenum: two interceptions by Ha Ha Clinton-Dix, including a pick six, another by Kyle Fuller and fumbles forced by Khalil Mack and Danny Trevathan.<\/p>\n<p class=\"STND-STND BodyText\">\u201cThat\u2019s all me,\u201d said Keenum, who was 30 of 43 for 331 yards and two touchdowns that didn\u2019t compensate for the turnovers. \u201cTurn it over that many times as a quarterback, I let my team down. It\u2019s all on me. I take complete responsibility. I have to take care of the ball better.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"STND-STND BodyText\">With the offense up to the defense\u2019s speed in the first half, Chicago put up 28 points in two quarters after scoring a total of 19 the past two weeks, 12 of which came on field goals from Eddy Pineiro.<\/p>\n<p class=\"STND-STND BodyText\">Mack had two of the Bears\u2019 four sacks to continue a dominant start by the defense that didn\u2019t give up a Washington TD until midway through the third quarter. Keenum\u2019s two TD passes came long after fans chanted for rookie quarterback Dwayne Haskins and booed the Redskins off the field at halftime.<\/p>\n<p class=\"STND-STND BodyText Subhead\">NOW WHAT?<\/p>\n<p class=\"STND-STND BodyText\">Washington\u2019s defense that wilted in the second half of its first two losses had few answers for Trubisky all game Monday. Eight days after coach Jay Gruden said, \u201cI don\u2019t think we have to push the panic button yet,\u201d some significant changes could be coming soon.<\/p>\n<p class=\"STND-STND BodyText\">Before Gruden\u2019s job security is really in question, defensive coordinator Greg Manusky looks like the logical target as the first coach to take the fall. Washington\u2019s defense ranked in 21st and 17th in the NFL in Manusky\u2019s first two seasons in charge and is on pace to finish worse than that this year.<\/p>\n<p class=\"STND-STND BodyText\">\u201cWe\u2019ve got some talent,\u201d Gruden said. \u201cWe\u2019ve just got to coach \u2018em up better, play better, be more balanced, protect the football. And defensively, stay after it.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"STND-STND BodyText\">The \u201cLet\u2019s go Haskins\u201d chants notwithstanding, the Redskins are far more likely to turn to longtime backup Colt McCoy if they make a change at the position. McCoy is working toward being healthy again nine months after breaking his right leg.<\/p>\n<p class=\"STND-STND BodyText Subhead\">HA HA GETS LAST LAUGH<\/p>\n<p class=\"STND-STND BodyText\">When the Redskins signed former New York Giants safety Landon Collins, it effectively spelled the end of their chances of re-signing Clinton-Dix, a trade acquisition last year from Green Bay who played nine games for them. Clinton-Dix made his old team pay with a first quarter interception he returned 37 yards for his first career touchdown.<\/p>\n<p class=\"STND-STND BodyText\">Clinton-Dix for good measure picked off Keenum in the third quarter and returned it 59 yards.<\/p>\n<p class=\"STND-STND BodyText Subhead\">JUST FOR KICKS<\/p>\n<p class=\"STND-STND BodyText\">Pineiro, who was questionable because of a knee injury suffered while lifting weights, missed a 44-yard field goal attempt in the third quarter and was good from 38 yards in the fourth. \u201cEddy Money\u201d was 4 of 4 going into the night, including a 53-yard game-winner at Denver in Week 2.<\/p>\n<p class=\"STND-STND BodyText Subhead\">MONDAY NIGHT SADNESS<\/p>\n<p class=\"STND-STND BodyText\">The Redskins lost their eighth consecutive Monday night game, tying for the second-longest streak in league history. They\u2019ve now lost 17 of their past 18 Monday night home games.<\/p>\n<p class=\"STND-STND BodyText Subhead\">INJURIES<\/p>\n<p class=\"STND-STND BodyText BoldIntro\">Bears: DT Akiem Hicks left early in the fourth quarter with a knee injury. \u2026 RT Bobby Massie was a surprise scratch with what coach Matt Nagy called \u201ca small case of vertigo.\u201d \u2026 DE Bilal Nichols was out with a broken hand.<\/p>\n<p class=\"STND-STND BodyText BoldIntro\">Redskins: TE Jordan Reed (concussion) missed a third consecutive game, and CB Quinton Dunbar (knee) was out for the second week in a row.<\/p>\n<p class=\"STND-STND BodyText Subhead\">UP NEXT<\/p>\n<p class=\"STND-STND BodyText BoldIntro\">Bears: Host former Redskins QB Kirk Cousins and the Minnesota Vikings on Sunday.<\/p>\n<p class=\"STND-STND BodyText BoldIntro\">Redskins: Look to avoid an 0-4 start when they visit Daniel Jones and the New York Giants on Sunday.<\/p>\n<p class=\"STND-STND BodyText\">\u2014\u2014\u2014<\/p>\n<p class=\"STND-STND BodyText\">More AP NFL: <a href=\"https:\/\/apnews.com\/NFL\" rel=\"nofollow\">https:\/\/apnews.com\/NFL<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/AP%E2%80%94NFL\" rel=\"nofollow\">https:\/\/twitter.com\/AP\u2014NFL<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.postindependent.com\/sports\/trubisky-bears-get-offense-on-track-beat-redskins-31-15\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">via:: Post Independent<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Chicago Bears quarterback Mitchell Trubisky (10) throws under pressure from Washington Redskins linebacker Montez Sweat (90) during the first half of an NFL football game Monday, Sept. 23, 2019, in Landover, Md.
