The Bears, in need of a win in the worst way, came through on Sunday night, handing the Packers their first lost of the season with a 27-20 come-from-behind win at Lambeau Field.  The Bears, who trailed by 10 points in with just over four minutes left in the third quarter, intercepted Brett Favre twice in the game and forced five Packers turnovers in all.  Brian Griese completed 15-of-25 passes for 214 yards with two touchdowns and one interception.  Desmond Clark hauled in the go-ahead, 34-yard TD reception with just over two minutes to play.  Greg Olson also caught a touchdown pass.  Cedric Benson ran 27 times for 64 yards and a score.  The Bears, who advanced to 2-and-3, host the Vikings on Sunday.
