Just when you thought you had seen the most dramatic, astonishing, improbable comeback victories by the cardiac Bears this year, they topped each and every one of them Saturday night in the most important game of the season.
Jordan Love threw for 234 passing yards and three touchdowns - two of them big plays to Christian Watson - as Green Bay edged above Chicago to become division leaders with a 9-3-1 record. But the 9-4 Bears have the chance to get payback and potentially regain top spot when they welcome the Packers to Chicago in two weeks.

The Bears totaled 440 yards and found the end zone five times in Sunday night's road battle with the 49ers, but Jauan Jennings' 38-yard touchdown reception late in the fourth quarter gave San Francisco a 42-38 victory at Levi's Stadium.
The turnover seemingly flipped the game, as the Broncos rallied and took control. Making matters worse, the Packers then lost defensive star Micah Parsons to a knee injury, as he went down without contact while trying to make a cut as he chased Denver QB Bo Nix.
