James Jones caught all three touchdown passes from quarterback Aaron Rodgers to secure the 21-13 victory.

Brandon Marshall scored an early touchdown to put the Bears ahead, but Jay Cutler struggled to set up more opportunities, completing 12 of 21 passes and throwing an interception.

Two Olindo Mare field goals gave Chicago late hope of a comeback but the Packers hung on to claim their sixth consecutive win over the Bears.

The win means Green Bay will finish top of their division, while the Bears drop to third and out of the playoff wildcard places.
