Packers Win 11th Straight vs Bears with Blocked FG

The Green Bay Packers secured a dramatic 20-19 victory over the Chicago Bears by blocking a potential game-winning 46-yard field goal as time expired. Bears head coach Matt Eberflus plans to challenge the play, alleging an uncalled penalty on the Packers for illegal contact with the long snapper. While Bears kicker Cairo Santos expressed disappointment, he acknowledged the Packers' special teams' effective execution. The win extends Green Bay's dominance over Chicago to an 11-game winning streak. Packers' special teams coordinator Rich Bisaccia had anticipated the opportunity to exploit vulnerabilities in the Bears' protection, ultimately culminating in the decisive block by Karl Brooks. The loss marks another chapter in the Bears' struggles to close games against their rivals, perpetuating a history of missed game-winning field goals on second down.
