Rodgers throws three TD passes to lift Packers over Bears (AFP)

Chicago (AFP) - Aaron Rodgers threw three touchdown passes to rally the Green Bay Packers past visiting Chicago 26-10 on Thursday in the latest matchup of the NFL's oldest rivalry.

The Packers, who improved to 4-2 this season, trail the overall series with the Bears at 94-93 with six drawn in a rivalry that dates to 1921, a year after the league was formed.

Two Mason Crosby field goals against one by Connor Barth gave Green Bay a 6-3 half-time edge but the Bears grabbed the lead when Leonard Floyd sacked Rodgers for a 14-yard loss, knocked loose a fumble and recovered the ball in the end zone for a Chicago touchdown only 17 seconds into the third quarter.
