CHICAGO -- Aaron Rodgers and the Green Bay Packers were rolling along with a big lead, looking as though they would take another step toward a playoff spot and the top of the NFC North.Once it disappeared, they still found a way to pull out the victory.Rodgers hit Jordy Nelson with a 60-yard pass to set up Mason Crosbys 32-yard field goal as time expired, lifting the Green Bay Packers to a 30-27 victory over the Bears in one of the coldest games ever played in Chicago on Sunday.Wide receiver-turned-running back Ty Montgomery ran for a career-high 162 yards and two touchdowns. Micah Hyde broke up a potential go-ahead touchdown pass, and the Packers (8-6) earned their fourth straight victory despite blowing a 27-10 lead in the fourth quarter.They also moved ahead of Minnesota for sole possession of second place in the NFC North and pulled within a game of division leader Detroit, with the Vikings getting pounded by Indianapolis and the Lions losing to the New York Giants.I think we have a lot of grit as a team, Rodgers said. We stick together in adverse situations. There wasnt any finger pointing after 27-10 turned into 27-27 for either side. We just knew we had to go out and make something happen. Its fun to be standing here at 8-6. We all know what 4-6 felt like. It was tough.For the Bears (3-11), it was more of the same.They had tied it on a field goal by Connor Barth with 1:19 left. The Packers took over at their 27, and on third-and-11 at the 26, Rodgers unleashed a deep pass down the middle of the field to Nelson, who got behind CreVon LeBlanc.With no timeouts, the Packers downed the ball before Crosby booted his winner.The team has a lot of character, Chicago defensive end Akiem Hicks said.

Julius Peppers had a strip-sack that led to a field goal. Ha Ha Clinton-Dix added two interceptions, and the Packers tied the NFLs oldest rivalry for the first time since 1933 at 94-94-6.Chicagos Matt Barkley threw for 362 yards and two touchdowns, but was picked off three times.Alshon Jeffery came on strong near the end to finish with 89 yards on six catches in his return from a four-game suspension for violating the NFLs policy against performance-enhancing drugs.Deonte Thompson led Chicago with 110 yards receiving. Cameron Meredith added nine catches for 104 yards, but the Bears lost for the fifth time in six games.LATE RALLYGreen Bay was clinging to a three-point lead in the closing minutes when Hyde reached in front of Meredith at the goal line on third down at the Packers 4. Chicago chose to have Barth kick a field goal rather than try again for a touchdown.QUOTABLETo have it even out all those years is pretty crazy. -- Nelson on tying the rivalry.NOTABLEThe Packers and Bears combined for 900 yards in their 152nd regular-season meeting since 1940.

Deion Sanders Jersey . They hope to persuade the other team owners and commissioner Roger Goodell to put pressure on Redskins owner Daniel Snyder to drop the nickname they find offensive. "Given the way the meeting transpired," Ray Halbritter, an Oneida representative and leader of the "Change the Mascot Campaign," said Wednesday, "it became somewhat evident they were defending the continued use of the name. MINNEAPOLIS -- It doesnt take long for Maya Moore to recognize when teammate Seimone Augustus has found her groove.Those dreads get to popping, nostrils get to flaring, Moore said, a big smile creasing her face. I mean, my nostrils flare, too. Were both nostril-flaring kind of players. Just that look in her eye.And to think, if at least one team had its way, Augustus never would have been there for the Lynx in Game 2 of the WNBA Finals on Tuesday night, when her fourth-quarter scoring flurry helped Minnesota turn back a rally by the Los Angeles Sparks and even the best-of-five series at one game apiece.In the spring of 2011, the Lynx were a team that had never won a playoff series in their 12 years of existence. After they chose Moore with the No. 1 overall pick in the draft, second-year coach Cheryl Reeve said she got a call from Augustus, the teams longest-tenured and most accomplished star.Other teams called her tampering with her, tried to lure her away and said, `Hey its going to be Maya Moores team. Its not going to be your team. You should probably leave now, Reeve recalled this week. When `Mone called me and told me, that was a sign of her selflessness.That attitude has embodied the Lynx during their run to five WNBA Finals appearances in the last six years. They are a team packed with All-Stars, including four Olympians for Team USA that have shared the spotlight and watched their individual statistics dip in deference to group success.As the finals shift to Los Angeles for Games 3 and 4, the Lynx are two wins away from becoming the first back-to-back champions since 2002. It would also give Minnesota its fourth title overall, which would be tied with the Houston Comets for most in league history.Reeve declined to name the team that allegedly tampered with Augustus, but said the same organization has shown a pattern of flouting the rules over the years. In one instance, Reeve said the Lynx logged a complaint with WNBA security after one of the opponents ball kids was caught leaning in to team huddles during the game to eavesdrop. Reeve also said the opponent has been known to send a team employee into the visitors locker room after the game has started to take photos of the strategies drawn on white boards in the room.ddddddddddddeeve said she has had conversations with the coach to smooth things out, but has spread the word to other teams to be on the lookout for suspicious practices.This group of people, as it turns out, they do things a little more shadily, if you will, Reeve said. It was a pattern that I was alerted to then. I think more than anything what I got out of it is Seimones loyalty. She didnt have to tell us. Im sure a lot of players get that. But Ive just become more aware and we keep our eyes on it. Overall we got a kick out of it because of Seimones reaction to them. They looked bad.Augustus did stay with the Lynx and together they won their first championship in Moores rookie season. They also won titles in 2013 and 2015.Seimone has always been committed to this franchise, Reeve said. Even when times were a little more lean and she was frustrated, shes always been committed to it.Augustus did not play well in their series-opening loss to the Sparks. But she rebounded to score 14 points in an emphatic 79-60 victory in Game 2 that tied the series. Nine of those points came in the fourth quarter after the Sparks had whittled a 17-point deficit to just three points in the third.We were in this position before last year, and the thing for us is we know what we needed to do, Augustus said. Not saying that LA didnt capitalize on the mistakes that we made, but there were a lot of empty possessions where they were able to get out in transition and spark their offense, a lot of defensive possessions where we had a lot of miscommunication. Those are simple things that we can clean up, but those are key details that can cost you the game.As the Lynx head to LA for Game 3 on Friday night, they dont have to worry about the Sparks pulling any tricks on them.That other team, Reeve said with a grin, didnt make it this far.Im a big karma person, she said. And karma has caught up to them in different ways.
