Griese hit Clark with a 34-yard strike with two minutes remaining as the Bears (2-3) roared back from a 20-10 third-quarter deficit with 17 unanswered points on the Packers's home field.

Green Bay had won four straight games before the stunning loss.

Five turnovers, including three fumbles, hurt the Packers, who scored only three points in the second half after holding a 17-7 halftime lead.
