CHICAGO (AP) - Jay Cutler came through with a big pass to Devin
Hester on third down, and Robbie Gould booted a 44-yard field goal
with 15 seconds left to lift the Chicago Bears to a 17-14 victory
over the Pittsburgh Steelers on Sunday.
Cutler hit rookie Johnny Knox with the tying touchdown midway
through the fourth quarter.
After Jeff Reed missed his second field goal of the period,
Cutler helped set up Gould's field goal with a 5-yard pass to
Hester on third-and-4 at the Steelers 39 that kept the winning
drive going.
Cutler's home game was a big improvement over his debut with the
Bears (1-1). He finished with 236 yards and two touchdowns without
an interceptions, after being picked off a career-high four times
in a season-opening loss at Green Bay.
That was enough to offset solid performances by Ben
Roethlisberger and Santonio Holmes for Pittsburgh (1-1).
