Dennis Dillon says the season is young, but this year’s Bears are resembling the ‘06 Super Bowl team. [4]

Jay Cutler threw for 221 yards, Brian Urlacher forced a key fumble and Chicago took advantage of a team-record 18 penalties by the Packers to beat Green Bay 20-17 on Monday night. [5]

Rarely do the Bears and Packers contend in the same year, but this could be one of those years. [...] Devin Hester and the Bears are evoking memories of the 2006 Chicago team that reached the Super Bowl. [4]

Devin Hester delivered his first touchdown return in three years when he ran back a punt 62 yards in the fourth quarter, giving the Bears a short-lived 14-10 lead. [2]

Even though the Bears seized early control of the NFC North with a 20-17 victory over the Green Bay Packers in the 179th renewal of the NFL’s oldest rivalry, it’s premature for them to start looking ahead to Super Bowl 45 in Dallas. [...] The Packers mistakes sullied an impressive performance by quarterback Aaron Rodgers, who completed 34 of 45 passes for 316 yards. [4]
