CHICAGO (AP) — The Chicago Bears could be without all three of their coordinators when they host the Minnesota Vikings on Monday night. Offensive coordinator Bill Lazor, defensive coordinator Sean Desai, and special teams coordinator Chris Tabor tested positive this week. Lazor says he felt as if he had a bad head cold. He would have simply taken medicine and gone about his job as usual under normal circumstances. Tabor and Desai have also experienced some symptoms. Both appeared to be in better shape and were hopeful they would be cleared to rejoin the team in time for the game.

— Jonathan Taylor ran for 170 yards and scored on a 67-yarder with 2:01 left to help the Indianapolis Colts seal a 27-17 victory over the New England Patriots. The Colts solidified their playoff hopes by winning for the fifth time in six games — and ending an eight-game losing streak to the rival Patriots. Taylor has run for a touchdown in 11 straight games to tie Hall of Famer Lenny Moore for the longest streak in franchise history. New England had won seven straight and started the weekend in the top spot of the AFC playoff chase. But the Patriots could not overcome a 20-0 deficit because of too many uncharacteristic mistakes.
