Rodgers, Nelson save the day

Week 15
December 18, 2016 - 12 p.m. - FOX
Soldier Field
Chicago, Illinois

Packers 30 - Bears 27

Aaron Rodgers and Jordy Nelson saved the day.

With under a minute remaining and the game tied, Rodgers connected with Nelson for 60 yards to put the Packers in field goal range for Mason Crosby to kick a game-winning field goal at the buzzer in Chicago.


The win extends the winning streak to four.  Currently, the Packers now hold the 6th seed in the NFC playoffs.  With a Detroit loss to the New York Giants, the Packers now control their own destiny.  Win the next two games and they will win the NFC North division.  Wild Card spot is also a possibility, but unlikely.

Ty Montgomery had a monster game (as a running back). Ty rushed for 162 yards on 16 carries and had two touchdowns.  Montgomery is getting better each week, which is very encouraging.

Ha Ha Clinton-Dix had a nice game as well as he intercepted Bears quarterback Matt Barkley twice in the third quarter.
