Facing a crucial 3rd and 4, the Bears defense stepped up big at the right time with Roquan Smith picking off a Joe Burrow pass and taking it to the house with a convoy of Bears’ defenders clearing the way for the linebacker. Watch the play here:

The big play put the Bears up 17-3 with 10:55 left in the 4th quarter. Thus far, Smith has 8 tackles, 1 sack and a pass deflection to go along with the interception. Could we be seeing a NFC Defensive Player of the Week award for the Bears’ linebacker?
