Cutler 'dinked and dunked' Raiders' D on game-winning drive

CHICAGO – The Raiders had the lead with two minutes remaining in Sunday’s game against the Chicago Bears, but left Soldier Field with a loss.

Chicago’s well-executed two-minute drill proved to be the difference in a tight ball game decided with seven seconds remaining.

The Raiders needed a defensive stand like they had in last week’s win over Cleveland. Lightning didn’t strike twice. Quarterback Jay Cutler got his Bears into field goal range and Robbie Gould converted from 49 yards out.

“They did a good job of managing the clock and getting out of bounds and making key throws and catches to keep the drive going,” defensive end Justin Tuck said.
