CHICAGO — Justin Fields threw for 268 yards with a touchdown pass and a rushing TD in what could be his final home game for Chicago, and Bears dealt Atlanta's postseason hopes a big blow, beating the Falcons 37-17. DJ Moore finished with nine catches for 159 yards and a touchdown, and Khalil Herbert ran for 124 yards and a score as the Bears overwhelmed the Falcons in snowy conditions.
