Today, the Bears surprised the Packers with a clever trick play, taking an early lead in the game. While the Packers were punting, the Bears had two returners on the field. One acted like they were going to catch the ball on the left sideline, drawing the attention of the Packers' special teams. Meanwhile, Josh Blackwell, the real returner, caught the ball unnoticed on the right sideline and sprinted for a 94-yard touchdown.
This was a significant blunder by the Packers' special teams unit. The Bears' special teams executed the play perfectly, but some might question why they waited until the end of the season to use such a creative strategy. The Bears haven't had a lead in a game since Week 12, so this play was a welcome change.
The Bears have nothing to gain from this game, as they are not in playoff contention. The Packers, however, are trying to improve their playoff seeding from the 7th to the 6th position in the NFC. Unfortunately, the Packers haven't been playing like a playoff team in the early stages of this game.
