Whatever nadir coach Matt Nagy’s Bears hit in their 17-16 loss to the Chargers on Sunday, it also was the team’s lowest-

rated game in 22 months in the Chicago TV market. FOX-32’s Bears-Chargers telecast averaged a 22.9 household rating locally, or 22.9% of the Chicago area. That’s the smallest local audience for a Bears contest since the final game under John Fox, Nagy’s predecessor, a 23-10 road loss to the Vikings on Dec. 31, 2017, which averaged a 16.9 household rating. The low-water mark Sunday came despite a change in Nielsen methodology, effective earlier this month, accounting for out-of-home viewing in calculations.
