Williams had pressure on a lot of his drop-backs, though he could have dealt with some of that himself without such scrambling theatrics. One sack allowed won’t get anybody banished to Siberia.

It'll be Brandon Staley's defense being tested first. Chicago's offense will work to establish the pace of play in the rainy and windy conditions at Soldier Field. If they can get an early stop, the Saints could set up their offense to dictate terms to start the second half.
