Bears vs. Texans: Live score updates, highlights from Week 2 game

The Chicago Bears (1-0) will battle the Houston Texans (1-0) on Sunday Night Football, where they’ll be looking to upset a team many have pegged as Super Bowl contenders.

The Bears are coming off a 24-17 comeback win over the Tennessee Titans (0-1), where defense and special teams rose to the occasion as rookie Caleb Williams and the offense struggled. After trailing 17-0, the Bears scored 24 unanswered points, notching three takeaways and scoring defensive and special teams touchdowns en route to the miraculous win. But there are concerns about the offense, which failed to total 150 yards on the afternoon.

Meanwhile, Houston is coming off a close divisional contest with the Indianapolis Colts (0-1) — Chicago’s Week 3 opponent — where they won 29-27. Quarterback C.J. Stroud connected with new receiver Stefon Diggs on two touchdowns and new running back Joe Mixon rushed for 159 yards and a score.

Bears vs. Texans predictions

C.J. Stroud and Houston’s explosive offense will be tested by a Chicago defense that stifled Tennessee in the second half last week. After a rough start in Week 1, Caleb Williams and the Bears offense will look to get things going and attack downfield, where the Texans gave up some explosive plays. But they’ll have to do a better job of protecting Williams. While this could be a close one early, ultimately the better team emerges victorious in this one. Texans 24, Bears 17
