Montgomery’s effort not enough in Bears’ loss to Packers

Associated Press  

GREEN BAY, Wis. — David Montgomery made things happen for the Chicago Bears just about every time he touched the ball. “I don’t know what he ate today, but he was running the ball crazy,” Bears quarterback Justin Fields said. Montgomery, Fields and the rest of the Bears’ offense made things look easy on their first possession of the night. The Bears took a 7-3 lead midway through the first quarter as Fields’ 3-yard touchdown keeper capped a seven-play, 71-yard drive. “You’ve got to stay ahead of the sticks in that regard.” Perhaps the only good play the offense ran during that entire stretch — a 31-yard completion to former Packers receiver Equanimeous St. Brown — got wiped out because Fields was about 3 yards beyond the line of scrimmage when they threw the pass.
