Absolutely love the irony of DJ catching the game winner with Nixon in coverage.  Most especially after that blatant chip shot on DJ earlier in the game.

He talked about that post game. He said it was something that was on his mind as he was making the catch

I am so very sick of NFL officials consistently missing this type of crap when the Bears are on the receiving end.  Honestly, it's miracle they managed to call an obvious face mask on Caleb.

How many teams have ever not punted…and still lost?

The Patriots didn't punt in the Super Bowl they lost to the Eagles.

Given my hatred for GB, this is the greatest comeback I've seen. That includes the 06' Cardinals game, the Mike Brown game winners, and the 85' McMahon coming off the beach against Minnesota. The totality of the circumstances and recent bias, points to this one.

Yeah I never thought the "The Bears are who we thought they were" game would be b at but here we are.

What a crazy and fun game. I wonder if Caleb has fallen asleep yet. I think about the vitriol that was directed at Caleb because he paints his nails. How many of them are still clamoring for Jayden "I sit on the sidelines a lot" Daniels? Dude comes up big time, time and again.

I meant to say this last week, but I would say it deserves mentioning even more after last night, and that's the Special Teams work has taken a complete 180%. Santos has a miss in there (last week), but he's been very good at not only field goals, but also getting the 20 yard line touch back. There have been much better Bears returns, less penalties and Taylor has pinned them deep. 

My prediction that Jahdae would shine wasn't that far off. 2 catches isn't off the charts, but that grab for a TD was a shining moment. Olamide, your ticket is ready at the train station. Where are you going? Anywhere but here.

I don’t think this is sustainable but I’m enjoying every minute of it. I’ve never seen soilder field rock like that before. The camera shook from the earthquake caused by the roar of the crowd.

It’s happened twice this year to the packers. The other was their 13-16 loss to Carolina which is kind of amazing.

I think the flags would have come out had DJ not made the catch. It’s not how it should happen, but it’s what refs do in situations like this.

I absolutely love these. I'm a bit confused why Caleb isn't getting game balls, though.

I’ve wondered the same but I assume just an opportunity to recognize other guys on 53-man roster and send a message of “it takes every one of us”.

I have had this uneasy feeling in the pit of my stomach seeing breaks go the Bears way, particularly against Green Bay. It doesn’t feel right. These things never go our way, aside from flukey years like 2001. And they never happen against Green Bay. I have seen some iteration of this game play out 37 times over the last 25 years and it always ends with Chris Conte falling down or Jay Cutler being injured or Aaron Rodgers deciding he doesn’t want to trail anymore and just win the game. 
 

it still feels so weird to win these games. And of course they’re getting some luck, but also, they should get some luck. Last year wasn’t just bad coaching, the Bears also had some of the most abysmal luck I’ve ever seen in a single season. I didn’t expect karma to swing back so soon, but god damn. I’m happy for it.

It appears the Bears escaped any more serious injuries following the game.

Definitely need Odunze and Burden vs SF. SF defense isn't great but still...

Hopefully Johnson learned his lesson on 4th down without any damage.

He already has enough balls (literally and figuratively).

What a game. I fell asleep with my earbuds in listening in bed and woke up to the announcers screaming when the touchdown happened. Saw the replay this morning in the duck blind. What a throw and what a catch.
