INDIANAPOLIS — The game wasn't always pretty, but the Indianapolis Colts beat the Chicago Bears, 21-16, on Sunday afternoon at Lucas Oil Stadium for their first win of the season. Rookie defensive end Laiatu Latu stripped Chicago quarterback Caleb Williams — the top pick in April's NFL Draft — at the Bears 18-yard line late in the fourth quarter. Defensive tackle Grover Stewart recovered the ball, and running back Jonathan Taylor scored from 1-yard line to help seal the victory for Indianapolis. The first quarter was slow, but the action picked up in the second when Colts' quarterback Anthony Richardson connected with wide receiver Alec Pierce for a 44-yard gain to the Chicago 4-yard line. The momentum would be short-lived as Richardson threw an interception in the end zone to Bears' linebacker Tremaine Edmunds three plays later. Williams hit fellow rookie Rome Odunze for a 47-yard completion, but the young quarterback also followed the big gain with an interception as cornerback Jaylon Jones picked him off to end the scoring threat. The Colts took advantage of the takeaway. Richardson connected with tight end Kylen Granson for 40-yards, then Taylor broke free for a 29-yard touchdown run to put Indianapolis on top, 7-0. The Bears looked poised to score before halftime, driving down to the Colts' 1-yard line, but the defense stood strong, stopping Chicago running back D'Andre Swift on an option run to keep the game 7-0 at the break. Richardson began the second half with an interception to Jaylon Johnson on the first play from scrimmage. The Bears turned the turnover into a Cairo Santos 53-yard field goal. The next time Chicago had the ball, Jones intercepted Williams for the second time. The Colts would drive to the Bears 38-yard line before turning the ball over on downs when Taylor was stopped on fourth-and-3. The Colts responded by putting a 9-play, 80-yard drive together at the end of third quarter as running back Trey Sermon scored from one yard out for his first touchdown since 2021. Williams threw his first career touchdown, a one-yard pass to Odunze, to cut the Colts' lead to 14-9 midway through the fourth quarter. Williams threw his second touchdown of the game, a six-yard pass to tight end Cole Kmet, to cement the final score. The Colts will play their second straight home game next week when they host the Pittsburgh Steelers at 1 p.m. on CBS4.
