The game was competitive for a while, but Chicago pulled ahead in the fourth quarter largely due to running back D’Andre Swift. However, kicker Cairo Santos deserves a lot of credit for setting the stage with his earlier performance.

Santos made all five of his field goal tries, with four coming in the first half, which helped Chicago stay competitive. Although Caleb Williams had a good game, the Bears’ offense had trouble advancing the ball once they got near the opponent’s end of the field. Still, scoring any points was a positive for the team.

The Packers jumped ahead early in the second quarter when Josh Jacobs ran for an eight-yard touchdown. After that, both teams kicked two field goals each, leaving Green Bay with a narrow 13-12 lead at the half.

The third quarter was fairly uneventful, although the Packers managed to add to their lead with a field goal. Brandon McManus successfully kicked all three of his field goal attempts, despite the loss. Ultimately, that field goal was the last time the Packers scored.

The Bears’ running game came alive in the fourth quarter, with running back D’Andre Swift scoring two touchdowns to put Chicago ahead 26-16 with around 11 minutes remaining. Green Bay couldn’t respond, and the Bears added a field goal, making a comeback even less likely for the Packers.

The Chicago Bears won their game and are moving on to the Divisional Round of the playoffs. Because they finished as the second-seeded team, they’re guaranteed to play at least one more game at home in Soldier Field.

We’re planning improvements to our game simulations, but we’ve found that adjustments to CPU and player settings don’t seem to affect CPU versus CPU games. Also, the player rosters in Madden 26 currently have errors, with some players listed in incorrect positions. Despite these issues, we’re still committed to making these simulations better.
