Not to be out done, the Jets answered as Chase Cohen raced 40 yards to paydirt to make it 28 all. With a chance to take a two point advantage, the Jets fell prey to a heads-up defensive play by the Bears’ Dylan Subacz who picked off two point attempt and sprinted goal to goal to put the Bears up 30-28. After a defensive stand the Jets regained the lead at 34-30 as Kruchkowski latched on to his 2nd TD toss.
