A two-month run of success has the Green Bay Packers in position to claim their second straight NFC North title.

That scenario still seemed unlikely until recently, as the now-reeling Chicago Bears spent most of the season controlling the division. Until last week, Chicago (8-5) held either sole possession or a share of the North lead.

After week 5, the Bears were 4-1 while Green Bay was 2-3. The Packers, though, have won seven of eight while the Bears have dropped four of five since their outstanding first half.

Green Bay took the outright division lead with a 27-20 win over Detroit and Chicago’s 21-14 loss at Minnesota last weekend.
