Bears Overtake Packers in OT on Caleb Williams’ 46-Yard Strike to DJ Moore

The win gives Chicago a 1.5‑game NFC North cushion with two games to clinch the division.

Overview

  • Down 16-6 late, the Bears cut it with a Cairo Santos field goal, recovered Josh Blackwell’s onside kick, hit Jahdae Walker for a fourth‑and‑4 touchdown with 24 seconds left, then won on Williams’ 46‑yard overtime pass to DJ Moore.
  • Williams tied Peyton Manning’s mark for players under 25 with six fourth‑quarter comebacks, and ESPN Insights notes Chicago has six wins after trailing in the final two minutes this season.
  • Chicago improved to 11-4 while Green Bay slipped to 9-5-1 after Jordan Love left with a concussion and backup Malik Willis threw for 121 yards and a touchdown.
  • Williams praised first‑year head coach Ben Johnson and said the game‑winner to Moore mirrored a play the team repped in practice.
  • Chicago can clinch the NFC North with one more victory over its final two games, beginning with a Sunday night trip to the 49ers.
