Favorite Packers vs Bears games

[Pugger]

There's one, I can't remember when it was the way you guys can, but it was in Illinois in the pouring down rain and we absolutely destroyed them. I recall it being a fun game to watch...

Are you thinking of the Halloween game at night when they retired Payton's jersey?

Nobody wants to vote for the Charles Martin "Punky QB" body-slam game??

Not really. It made us look like a bunch of punks.

Chester Marcol's fieldgoal attempt batted by Alan Page right back into his arms - and he scampers around the left side for a game winning td.

I was there! Wins were few and far between back then.

...NOT THIS ONE!!!

All wins against the Bears are sweet. Our D had a bad day but Godgers was wonderful. Clay saved the day too.

I don't think it was Payton's jersey. I think it was Sayers and Butkus.

The Instant Replay Game

On November 5, 1989, the Packers beat the Bears 14-13, but not without controversy. Don Majkowski led the Packers to a comeback and a game-winning touchdown pass to Sterling Sharpe with only seconds left to play. Initially the play was called a touchdown, but line judge Jim Quirk had called a penalty on Majkowski for being beyond the line of scrimmage when he threw the pass. With a nervous and tense crowd at Lambeau Field, the call went up to the instant replay official, Bill Parkinson. Several minutes later the call came down and the touchdown was awarded as recorded by instant replay. The Lambeau faithful and Packer players erupted with joy because it marked the first time since 1984 that the Packers had beaten their long-time rivals. The Packers would later beat the Bears again in the season.

I was at this game too.

Okay, I wasn't sure...
