Bears CRUSH Packers! 10 Stats That Will SHOCK You!
Sports 11 January 2026

Chicago is buzzing. You can feel the electricity in the air after the Bears pulled off a playoff miracle against, of all teams, the Green Bay Packers. I was lucky enough to be at Soldier Field on Saturday night, and let me tell you, the atmosphere was absolutely insane. After decades of heartbreak, including an 85-year playoff drought against their arch-rivals, the Bears finally exorcised some demons with a comeback win for the ages.

Bears CRUSH Packers! 10 Stats That Will SHOCK You!

It wasn't pretty, especially early on. The Packers looked to be in control for much of the first half, with Jordan Love putting on a passing clinic. But Caleb Williams, showing the poise of a seasoned vet, orchestrated another one of his signature second-half rallies, sending the Bears faithful into a frenzy and securing a spot in the Divisional Round. It was a game of two halves, a real rollercoaster of emotions. But beyond the roar of the crowd and the elation of victory, the numbers tell a compelling story about just how improbable this win really was.

FOX Sports Research dug deep, and the stats they unearthed paint a fascinating picture. For instance, Jordan Love actually had a phenomenal game, joining legends like Aaron Rodgers and Brett Favre with multiple playoff games of three or more touchdown passes. He even tied a Packers playoff record with four TD passes! But here's the kicker: he's only the third quarterback *ever* to lose a playoff game despite throwing for four touchdowns and zero interceptions. That just shows you how wild this game was.

But the Bears' comeback is what truly stands out. It's the fourth-largest in team history and the biggest *ever* in a playoff game. Think about that for a second! They're only the fourth team in NFL history to overcome a 15+ point deficit in the fourth quarter of a playoff game and win. The last time that happened was the Patriots' Super Bowl LI comeback – pretty good company to be in. And speaking of comebacks, Williams’s seven game-winning drives this season (including playoffs) are tied for the most by a QB under 25 since, get this, 1950! The kid is clutch.

Adding to the historical significance, the Bears have seven comeback wins in the final two minutes or overtime this season, the most *ever*. They also dropped 25 points in the fourth quarter alone, joining a very short list of teams to accomplish that feat in a playoff game. The Bears have now scored at least 21 points in their last four games against Green Bay, their longest streak since the early 1950s. Oh, and one last thing that might sting Green Bay fans: rookie tight end Colston Loveland had a monster game, becoming the first rookie tight end *ever* to record at least eight receptions and 100 yards in a playoff game. The future is bright in Chicago, folks. This win wasn't just a victory; it felt like the start of something special.
