The Chicago Bears dominated the New York Jets in nearly every statistical category imaginable in Week 4. They totaled 492 yards, ran 89 offensive plays, produced 34 first downs, and controlled possession for more than 42 minutes.

Yet the final score was only 23-12.

That disconnect is where this week's BTX Report gets interesting.
