Bears lose to the Packers for the 11th straight time, and Sunday's defeat was the worst one yet

Chicago kicker Cairo Santos had his 46-yard attempt blocked as time expired.

The Chicago Bears entered Week 11 winless against the Green Bay Packers since 2018, having lost 10 straight against their divisional rival.

That streak extended to 11 on Sunday as the Bears lost again — this time in devastating fashion.

Trailing 20-19, rookie quarterback Caleb Williams led Chicago into field goal range with a clutch drive, including a stellar back-shoulder throw to fellow rookie Rome Odunze on fourth down to keep hopes for a win alive.

But despite having a first-and-10 on the Green Bay 30 with 35 seconds left and one timeout, the Bears ran only one play: a 2-yard run. That set up Cairo Santos for a 46-yard field goal, which was blocked and fell short as time expired.

It was questionable clock management by Chicago, which had time to run at least one more play (if not multiple) and set up a closer field goal for Santos. Though the Packers got only a fingertip on the kick, that was enough to stop the ball from going through the uprights from so far out.
