Packers win on two lucky bounces over winless Bears
Packers beat the Chicago Bears 20-17 in a Central Division clash. Green Bay benefited from two bizarre bounces one a fumble return by Clarence Williams and the other a deflected interception that bounced into Jon Staggers’s hands for a touchdown. Scott Hunter had 240 yards passing as Chester Marcol kicked the decisive field goal with 30 seconds left. Bears rallied from a 17-point halftime deficit but fell to 0-3-1 behind a tougher Packers defense and improving offense led by a resurging running game.
