With the weather conditions awful and two teams that are willing to run and play defense, Sunday night’s Texans-Bears game figured to come down to turnovers.

The Bears led the league with 28 takeaways this season, but so far, the Texans have the early edge in that category, a 2-1 advantage.

The Texans have forced a pair of fumbles already, though they have just a 3-0 lead to show for it.

Bears cornerback Tim Jennings just got his seventh pick of the year to narrow the gap.

Stay tuned, because the last one may win this game.
