Rodgers, Packers rally in 4th quarter to beat Bears 28-19

Associated Press  

CHICAGO — Aaron Rodgers figured the Green Bay Packers were in a good spot and would find a way to pull out the win. Rodgers led three fourth-quarter scoring drives, receiver Christian Watson took an end-around 46 yards for a touchdown in the closing minutes after Jaire Alexander intercepted Justin Fields, and Green Bay rallied to beat Chicago 28-19 on Sunday. Mason Crosby kicked a 32-yard field goal to give Green Bay a 20-19 lead with just under five minutes left after Chicago’s Cairo Santos had a 40-yard attempt blocked. “I thought our O-line was doing a great job and then his ability to extend plays, just have that poise to kind of hang in there and allow those guys to go off schedule and work gives me a lot of confidence.” Watson had 48 yards receiving and a touchdown reception — the rookie’s seventh in the past four games — to go with that huge run. INJURIES Packers: Rodgers said his thumb is “close to being a non-issue,” and his ribs probably will be, too, for Green Bay’s next game in two weeks.. RB Aaron Jones was hurt in the first half but returned.
