Janoris Jenkins ends it by breaking up pass play in OT
Three times the Bears were down to their final snap, and three times they either converted on fourth down or scored a touchdown to keep the game going. On the fourth try, though, the Giants’ defense finally came up with a stop. Janoris Jenkins broke up a deep fourth-down pass from Chase Daniel to Taylor Gabriel with 2:49 left in overtime to end the game. Olivier Vernon had pressure on the quarterback.
