But it was Green Bay who dominated the first half, moving ahead 14-3, as Aaron Rogers completed 16 of 24 passes for 176 yards. Ryan Grant finished the touchdown.
Chicago received a break on their first possession of the third quarter, Greg Olsen's 3-yard touchdown pass making it 14-10.
Green Bay were up 17-10 early in the final quarter. But Matt Forte's 3-yard run allowed the Bears to tie the game at 17.
The Packers did set up a game-winner from Mason Crosby, but Alex Brown blocked the kick.
Forte then made a third-down pass of 14 yards, and Green Bay set up the winning kick, Robbie Gould scoring his second successive game-winner in overtime.
