Cairo Santos made a 30-yard field goal with 10 seconds left, his fourth of the night after a miss on the opening drive, and the Bears had four interceptions of Joshua Dobbs in a defense-dominated 12-10 victory over the Minnesota Vikings on Monday. Moore for 36 yards put the ball at the 13 with 55 seconds left to set up the winning kick. The Bears (4-8) stopped a 12-game NFC North losing streak, including six in a row against the Vikings (6-6). Dobbs threw the go-ahead score to T.J. Hockenson with 5:54 left, but the Vikings stalled out again after that at the worst possible time. That set up the first field goal by Santos, who missed a 48-yard try on the first drive.

ImageFamily dramaHBO will release its last episode of “Succession” on Sunday. The fictional Roy family in “Succession” bears an uncanny resemblance to the Murdoch family. On the other was Wellington’s nephew, Tim Mara. Show credits could feature the Venetian blind that reportedly divided their stadium luxury suites at the height of their tension. The series would end in 1995 when Tim Mara, lacking any other recourse, sold his stake in the team.

☆ An Island Utopia Where Nobody Dies and the Living Is Easy

THE FERRYMAN, by Justin CroninFor a science-fictional utopia created by a reclusive “Designer,” the world of “The Ferryman” bears a startling resemblance to the well-heeled strata of, say, San Francisco or New York. The art is bad, and no one seems to realize it. There’s something mildly intoxicating, in fact, about entering this utopia, called Prospera, because Cronin’s shrewd world-building allows us to have it both ways: We sink into aspirational fantasy even as we relish the author’s sly commentary on a certain species of coastal elite. (Prospera is an island, after all.) Rather than undergo the indignities of birth and death, old or infirm Prosperans are sent by ferry to a mysterious island called the Nursery, where their memories are wiped and their bodies rejuvenated, so they can return as hale 16-year-olds with new identities.

☆ When Songs Sound Similar, Courts Look for Musical DNA

On the surface, Ed Sheeran and Led Zeppelin might not seem to have a lot in common. Led Zeppelin is a classic-rock colossus whose molten riffs are part of the foundation of heavy metal. Yet when it comes to the recent history of copyright litigation in music, Sheeran and Led Zeppelin are practically joined at the hip. In some ways, “Thinking Out Loud” bears an obvious resemblance to “Let’s Get It On.” They share nearly identical chord progressions and similar bass lines. (In this case, performance elements in the recordings are irrelevant; the suit involves only the underlying compositions.)

☆ ‘Accused’ Review: Beyond Law and Order

That show, with its unrelated storylines and many now-familiar actors, was produced by the Paulist Fathers of the Catholic Church, whose teachings were always at the center of the episodes—or, if you like, parables. “Accused” isn’t religious, but it preaches. And in a decidedly secular fashion. Each story (of the five made available for review, at least) involves a social issue, if not a social agenda, told from the point of view of someone facing criminal charges born of moral conflict. “Kendall’s Story” features Malcolm- Jamal Warner as the father of a sexually abused young girl, who is goaded by his friends—and their race-based distrust of police—to take matters into his own hands.

Sharon Hughes stayed awake as late as she could Monday night, forcing her eyes open. “Can you imagine how his mother felt?” Hughes told NBC News in an interview. Several plays later, with 62 seconds left in the game, Hughes fell face-down to the ground, clutching his chest. “You can’t blame football,” she said, adding, “I never did.”Little information was released about Hamlin’s medical condition after his collapse Monday night. Sharon Hughes said that she was following the news but that for now, she was focused just on one thing.
