Chicago scored first with quarterback Mike Tomczak ' s 64 - yard touchdown pass to Dennis McKinnon . The Eagles responded by driving to the Chicago 26 - yard line , but kicker Luis Zendejas missed a 43 - yard field goal .

The Bears then drove to the Eagles 33 - yard line on their ensuing drive , but it stalled and kicker Kevin Butler missed a 51 - yard field goal attempt , giving the ball back to Philadelphia with great field position .

Both teams scored another field goal before halftime , and they went into their locker rooms with Chicago leading 17 - 9 . Each team could only score a short field goal in the second half . The fog was so thick that both teams were forced to use their running game because receivers could not see the long passes thrown to them .
