Cutler answered with his third touchdown pass, then Romo quickly got the Cowboys moving again only to see Roy Williams fumble fighting for yards after a catch.

Buehler ended up hitting a 48-yarder with 1:17 left, but the Bears caught his onside kick and drained the clock.

More bad news for Dallas: Tight end Jason Witten left midway through the fourth, perhaps with a concussion, and Pro Bowl cornerback Mike Jenkins appeared to have hurt his right knee soon after.

Cutler was 21 of 29 for 277 yards. He ended up getting sacked only once, despite losing left tackle Chris Williams to a hamstring injury in the first quarter. His touchdowns went to Greg Olsen, Devin Hester and Matt Forte. He also had a 59-yarder to Johnny Knox that set up Hester's score.

Romo was 34 of 51 for 374 yards and a touchdown. He had two interceptions, both bouncing off usually sure-handed receivers.

Dallas also got a 62-yard punt return for a touchdown from rookie Dez Bryant.
