The most frustrating thing about that game was how the Bears and their supposedly inept offense made significant advances on every possession, even when they started deep in their own territory.
Looking at the play by play summary, the Bears shortest drive in their 7 possessions was their first that went 8 plays for 34 yards and a long FG. They were 9 for 16 on third down conversions and 3 for 3 on 4th downs. In other words, they had 16 third downs and eventually picked up a first down on 12 of them.
The Packers were lucky the Bears didn’t try to move the ball closer in the last minute instead of running down the clock and settling tfor the longer FG attempt.
Not counting the kneel down at the end of the half the Packers only had 6 possessions and either scored a TD or moved inside the Bears 10 on all but one of them. But, because they moved quickly and only got to third down 5 times, it seemed like the Bears had the ball most of the game.
