The Chicago Bears pulled off a thrilling 22-16 overtime victory against the Green Bay Packers on Sunday, capped by a 46-yard touchdown pass from quarterback Caleb Williams to wide receiver DJ Moore.

The Packers appeared poised for a key NFC North win after building a 16-6 lead with just over five minutes left in the fourth quarter. Backup quarterback Malik Willis, filling in for an injured Jordan Love, connected with Romeo Doubs down the sideline for a touchdown to give Green Bay a 13-6 advantage earlier in the quarter.

Cairo Santos kept the Bears within striking distance with a field goal, bringing the score to 16-9. Chicago then successfully executed an onside kick to regain possession. With just over 20 seconds remaining, Williams found Jahdae Walker in the end zone to tie the game at 16-16, forcing overtime.

After halting Green Bay’s opening drive in OT, the Bears secured the win on Williams’ 46-yard touchdown to Moore, sending the home crowd into celebration.

The victory keeps Chicago atop the NFC North with an 11-4 record. They can clinch a playoff berth this week if the Detroit Lions fall to the Pittsburgh Steelers.
