Packers Dominate Bears 31-7 at Lambeau

This decisive division victory signals that Green Bay's offense has surged.

Overview

  • The Packers built an early lead and closed out a 31-7 win at Lambeau on Sunday after forcing multiple Chicago turnovers that handed Green Bay short fields and score opportunities.
  • Jordan Love completed 25 of 31 passes for 367 yards, two touchdowns and a 137.5 passer rating as his accuracy and timing repeatedly beat Chicago's coverages.
  • Christian Watson finished with 143 receiving yards and two long touchdown catches, including a 53-yard score, while Matthew Golden posted a career-high receiving day to stretch the Bears' defense.
  • Chicago coughed up five turnovers overall as backup Tyson Bagent struggled (12-for-21 for 87 yards and two interceptions) and was replaced late by Case Keenum, who also threw an interception.
  • Special teams problems persisted for Green Bay when kicker Trey Smack missed an extra point and two field-goal attempts, and the result moves both teams to 3-2 while tightening the NFC North race behind the unbeaten Vikings.
