The Bears got some payback for a loss at Lambeau Field two weeks earlier that briefly knocked them out of first place.
The Chicago Bears are in the playoffs with an 11-4 record largely because coach Ben Johnson and quarterback Caleb Williams found a way to make their relationship work.
LAKE FOREST, Ill. (AP) — The Chicago Bears trailed at halftime in four of their last five regular-season games. They haven’t scored on their first offensive drive since Week 9 at Cincinnati. That’s a big concern for the NFC North champions going into the franchise’s first playoff appearance since the 2020 season. Coach Ben Johnson says the team wants "to start off a little bit faster and make it more of a complete game for 60 minutes.” Chicago hosts the Green Bay Packers on Saturday night for the opening weekend of the NFL playoffs. The Bears scored a total of three points in the first half while splitting their two regular-season games against the Packers.
