CHICAGO (AP)- Drew Brees threw two touchdowns to regain the NFL’s all-time lead from Tom Brady, Wil Lutz nailed a 35-yard field goal in overtime and the New Orleans Saints beat Chicago 26-23.
The Bears’ Cairo Santos booted a 51-yarder at the end of regulation on Sunday.
The Saints (5-2) led 23-13 early in the fourth quarter after scoring 20 consecutive points, only to have Chicago rally in the closing minutes of regulation.
But the three-time defending NFC South champions pulled out their fourth straight win when Lutz connected on their second possession of OT.
