The emotions of a huge early play from Chicago Bears wideout Luther Burden led to furious teammates and an unnecessary timeout.

In the first quarter of the Thursday Night Football matchup against the New England Patriots, Bears quarterback Caleb Williams found Burden deep for a massive 58-yard gain.

But the emotions of the moment saw Burden go off on the sidelines to celebrate with Bears fans, oblivious to Williams' attempts to try to get the team to the line for a quick snap in the red zone.

Williams was seen screaming at Burden to get back to the line, which the receiver did not hear or register.

With the offense in disarray, the Bears were forced to take a timeout to re-set before they tried to punch the ball into the end zone.

Fortunately for Chicago, they managed to find paydirt on the very next play to build their lead out to 10-0.

Running back D'Andre Swift got into the end zone with less than two minutes in the opening quarter. 

New England responded in the second quarter with a touchdown run from quarterback Drake Maye.

After Chicago knocked through another field goal, Burden was able to make up for his mistake with a 24-yard touchdown reception with just 14 seconds left in the first half to go up 20-7.

The Bears looked set to take that 13-point lead into the locker room, only for Patriots running back Rhamondre Stevenson to scamper for a 48-yard touchdown catch to make the game 20-14.

Both teams traded third-quarter touchdowns to take a 27-21 contest into the final 15 minutes. In that last frame, the Bears saw tight end Cole Kmet go down with a knee injury that required him to be carted off the field.

After missing a kick earlier in the quarter, kicker Cairo Santos converted a career-long 58-yard field goal with less than two minutes left to take a two-possession lead.

With 1:34 remaining, the Patriots got to the Chicago 29-yard-line before kicking a field goal to make it a 30-24 game with 37 seconds left.

But on the ensuing onside kick attempt, Bears wideout Rome Odunze fell on the ball to clinch the victory for Chicago.
