The Green Bay Packers scored first, went into halftime with a lead and held leads of 24-6 and 38-14 before coasting to a decisive 38-20 win over the Chicago Bears during Sunday’s season opener at Soldier Field.
A game that was 10-6 at the midway point broke wide open in the second half as the Packers scored four touchdowns and raced away from their long-time rivals, clinching a ninth straight win in the series.
Winning by three scores in the NFL isn’t easy, even against a team that had the worst record in football a year ago.
