Add ClutchPoints as a Preferred Source by clicking here.The Chicago Bears fell flat on their faces in a 31-7 loss to the Green Bay Packers on Sunday, as backup quarterback Tyson Bagent failed to get the offense up and running, before head coach Ben Johnson replaced him with Case Keenum in the fourth quarter.Johnson explained that Bagent’s second interception in the third quarter was the breaking point, leading him to show the 26-year-old the door and hand the reins to Keenum in hopes of turning things around, but the move failed to bear fruit.“We felt like we just wanted a little spark there,” said Johnson. “Tyson just could never feel like he got in a rhythm here today, and so we’ll look at why that was the case. The second interception happened, and we just felt like let’s give Case a chance out there and see if we get different results.”Watch sports LIVE with fuboTV (free trial)Ben Johnson on pulling Tyson Bagent for Case Keenum Today: “We felt like we just wanted a little spark there.

However, his performance against Green Bay was considerably less effective, as he completed 12 of 21 passes for 87 yards without a touchdown while throwing two interceptions.Bagent’s interceptions contributed to Chicago’s offensive difficulties. His first came on a pass intended for Luther Burden, with McKinney intercepting the throw. His second interception followed an errant pass toward Colston Loveland.Keenum entered during the fourth quarter and completed 11 of 19 passes for 108 yards and threw an interception while also losing a fumble. His interception came on fourth-and-goal from the nine-yard line during his first series.Although Keenum finished with more passing yards than Bagent, he also attempted more passes, and neither of them managed to turn the situation around.The quarterback situation now becomes an important question heading into Week 6. The Bears have gone 2-1 without Williams, who missed the Packers game because of a hamstring injury. Johnson indicated that the starting quarterback could be cleared to return for next Sunday’s matchup versus the Atlanta Falcons.Williams participated in a limited practice on Friday and was doing rehabilitation work before Sunday’s kickoff, providing encouraging signs about his progress.Related: Case Keenum’s classy message on Tyson Bagent’s benching vs. PackersRelated: Bears’ Jaylon Johnson drops ‘personal’ bar on Packers rivalry after ugly loss
