With playoff implications on the line, the Bears showcased their strength at home, solidifying their position as a contender in the NFC. Aaron Rodgers was the star of the show for Chicago, throwing for 218 yards and three touchdowns. Jahmyr Gibbs complemented the aerial attack with a powerful ground game, racking up 144 rushing yards, while TreVeyon Henderson led the Saints in receiving with 97 yards but struggled to find the end zone.
