The Packers have now won four straight games and are 4-0 in the NFC North. With four games to go, the Packers are now the favorites in the division and in possession of the No. 2 seed in the conference. Here is an instant analysis of the Packers’ win over the Bears in Week 14: Final score: Packers 28, Bears 21 It was over when…On 4th-and-1 with 27 seconds left and the game on the line, Packers cornerback Keisean Nixon made an adjustment post-snap, found Cole Kmet in coverage and skied for the dagger interception in front of Kmet in the end zone to end the contest. Game ballsRB Josh Jacobs: The Packers running back turned 22 touches into 92 yards, and he was the difference-maker on the go-ahead touchdown drive, creating an 11-yard run, a 21-yard run on 3rd-and-2 and the touchdown on 3rd-and-goal. He made star plays when the Packers needed them late.CB Keisean Nixon: Redemption. After being benched for a 15-yard penalty in the first half and giving up a touchdown catch into his coverage in the second half, Nixon made the play of the game to finish off the win late. He had a quarterback hit, a pass breakup and an interception.DE Kingsley Enagbare: Micah Parsons probably deserves another game ball, but let’s give one to Enagbare, who had the only sack of Caleb Williams, and his run stuff on 3rd-and-goal set up the fourth down interception. Key statWhile the Packers got a go-ahead touchdown and finished 1-for-1 scoring touchdowns inside the 20-yard line, the Bears were only 2-for-4 scoring touchdowns in the red zone. The Packers got a pair of stops, including the game-clinching turnover. Deciding factorThe Packers speed on offense was on full display. Christian Watson ran away from defenders on both touchdown catches over 20 yards. Bo Melton got behind the coverage for a 45-yard touchdown. Jayden Reed returned and provided a big boost, turning six touches into 53 yards. With Watson and Reed healthy, the Packers have the speed to really hurt man coverage and create explosive plays.Jordan Love watchLove threw a terrible interception to end the opening drive, but he was great the rest of the way and finished 17 of 25 passing for 234 yards and three scores. All three touchdown passes were explosive plays, including a pair of scores over 40 yards. He hit Jayden Reed for 18 yards on the go-ahead drive. Love averaged 9.4 yards per attempt and finished with a passer rating of 120.7.
