Jordan Love came up big in big moments and his teammates rose to the Bears challenge, sending the North Division rivals on a bitter, cold ride home back to the city of wind. Chicago asked to receive the ball after winning the opening coin toss, showing no fears of the Packer defense.

The Bears came out strong, getting four first downs while cutting through the Packers defense. But at the Green Bay 26-yard line on first down, Fields was sacked by Lucas Van Ness and Kenny Clark. Then on third and 13 the Bears set up a screen that looked like it had open field ahead. That’s when rookie Carl Brooks came up huge.

Brooks wrapped his mitts around Khalil Herbert’s foot for a loss of three, forcing a fifty-yard field goal that Bears kicker Cairo Santos bounced off the post and through for the three points. Love and the Packer offense drove 12 plays and 52 yards to set up a 41-yard field goal, but Anders Carlson shanked his field goal attempt, giving the Bears decent field position with the lead.

Justin Fields started the next drive with accuracy. Two short passes created two first downs and 23 yards. But once again the defense was able to sack Fields, this time at the fifty-yard line. Devonte Wyatt blew into the backfield on third and six and Fields had no chance.

After a Bears punt Love and the Packers responded with their first touchdown drive. And it was a beauty. Ninety-two yards. Four runs by Aaron Jones and one by Bo Melton totaling 27 yards and all providing positive yardage. Love was perfect on the drive going 6 for 6 for 65 yards finishing with a beautiful ten-yarder to Wicks for the touchdown.
