I’ve been mildly annoyed by pass calls on 3rd-and-short today. But maybe it was all a setup for what we just saw.
Because after a cat-and-mouse game of exchanging timeouts, David Montgomery did this on 3rd-and-goal:

That short touchdown plunge gives the Bears a 17-7 lead. Montgomery now has 10 carries for 57 yards. Montgomery is running hard and strong. And frankly, he should get it at least 15 more times before this game is over.
