32 things we learned in NFL Week 14: Bears flipped on their heads in wild NFC
The Bears were upended by the Packers in one of several NFL Week 14 matchups that proved highly consequential to the evolving NFC playoff picture.
When Kyler Gordon plays, the Bears' defense soars to fourth in success rate, a stark contrast to their struggles without him.
The Bears rushed for 281 yards and two touchdowns and their defense generated two takeaways and permitted just two TDs in a 24-15 win over the Eagles Friday at Lincoln Financial Field.
Shiloh Christian scored on its next drive with a 44-yard pass from quarterback Cole Creighton to receiver Zane Sluyter, but Sylvan Hills pulled back within a touchdown when it scored on a 5-yard pass from quarterback Tyler Hampton to running back Isaiah Howell with 9:10 left in the second quarter, making it 14-6.
Who would have guess when the season began that the Green Bay Packers and the Chicago Bears would be playing for first place in the NFC North when the teams clash for the first time this year in Week 14?
