14. I was ready to give up at halftime.

I decided to wait and see. Obviously, I'm glad I did. I haven't seen anyone point out what I saw: the Bears defense actually showed up in the second half. Suddenly the Packers couldn't gain more than one yard on a run. Receivers were covered long enough that Jordan Love started getting pressured. This is the best defense I've seen from the Bears all season. I doubt I will see it again next week against the Rams, but if I do see it, the Bears will win again.

Someone needs to say it: these Bears are a dangerous team. They were being humiliated and bounced back. I wonder if they will ever be out of a game.
