The Chicago Bears did it once against the Green Bay Packers on Saturday during the wild-card round of the 2026 NFL playoffs with an 18-point comeback.
Going into halftime, Chicago was facing a 21-3 deficit and couldn't get much offense going, but flipped the script in the second half, including two touchdowns on the last two possessions, with the game-winner to wide receiver DJ Moore, much like the previous regular-season matchup.
After the Bears pulled off the victory, Moore spoke post-game with NFL Network's Stacey Dales and made it clear he is not taking the season for granted, especially with the team in the postseason for the first time.

Moore is excited to finally be in the playoffs.
When asked what it meant to defeat the Packers in the postseason, Moore responded, "Eight years I've been missing out on this playoff stuff, and now I've got one under my belt." Moore said.
It couldn't have been a better first playoff game for Moore after assisting in a come-from-behind victory as the receiver with six catches, including the eventual game-winner.
This season has actually been Moore's first winning season since entering the league in 2018, when the Carolina Panthers drafted him before Chicago acquired the standout receiver in 2023.
Moore will likely continue to enjoy the Bears' postseason run if he performs at a high level, because when he shows up, it's almost impossible for the team to stop him, and when paired with a defense that causes turnovers, it makes the team harder to beat.
The Bears' next opponent will be decided by the winner of the San Fransciso 49ers and the Philadelphia Eagles, as they will face the highest remaining seed, which could be the Los Angeles Rams or the defending Super Bowl champions.
