Bears 23, Ravens 20 (OT): Robbie Gould booted a 38-yard field goal midway through overtime to pace the host Bears to the win in a game delayed nearly two hours by severe weather.

Gould's kick capped the Bears' (6-4) only possession in the extra session and was set up by a 43-yard pass from Josh McCown, starting for the injured Jay Cutler, to Martellus Bennett. McCown finished 19-for-31 for 216 yards throwing the ball into a wind gusting up to 50 mph.

Ray Rice rushed for a season-high 131 yards and a touchdown on 25 carries for the Ravens (4-6). Joe Flacco was 17-for-31 for 162 yards including a touchdown but Baltimore failed to get into the end zone on three tries from inside the 5-yard line at the end of regulation.

Rice scored on a 1-yard run on the Ravens' first drive of the game and Baltimore built a 10-0 lead on Justin Tucker's first field goal of the game coming right before play was halted for 1 hour and 53 minutes. When the game resumed, Gould hit a pair of field goals and David Bass returned a Flacco interception 24 yards for a touchdown, but Flacco quickly responded hitting Torrey Smith on a 5-yard scoring pass and the Ravens took a 17-13 lead into the locker rooms.

McCown connected with Matt Forte, who broke three tackles on the way into the end zone, to give the Bears their first lead (20-17) in the fourth quarter, but Tucker capped an 81-yard drive with a 21-yard field goal with three seconds to play to force overtime - five hours after the game started.

GAME NOTEBOOK: As many as 60 tornadoes were reported in the Midwest area just minutes after kickoff. ... Rice's first carry of the game went for a season-long 47 yards. ... Flacco has been intercepted 13 times this season, three more than all of last year.
