Pair of Aaron Jones TDs to start third quarter puts Packers up 21-3 over Bears

Back-to-back touchdown runs from Aaron Jones helped put the Green Bay Packers up by 18 points over the Chicago Bears in the third quarter of Sunday’s NFC North battle.

Jones scored from 21 yards out to finish off a 73-yard drive to start the second half and then scored again on a 2-yard run on the next Packers’ possession, giving Green Bay a commanding 21-3 lead.

The Packers gained 139 yards and scored 14 points over just 10 plays to start the second half.

Jones now has 40 rushing yards and two touchdowns on just nine carries. The two scores give him 17 for the season.

Big passing plays helped spark both drives. Aaron Rodgers hit Davante Adams on a 34-yard completion early in the first drive and then found Jake Kumerow for 49 yards on third down to jump-start the second scoring possession.

The Packers are roughly 20 minutes away from 11-3.
