(AP) Brian Griese threw a 34-yard touchdown pass to Desmond Clark with 2:05 remaining to give the Chicago Bears a 27-20 win over the Green Bay Packers.

The Bears, who improved to 2-3, scored 17 unanswered points.

Chicago clinched the victory when Brandon McGowan picked off Brett Favre in the end zone in the final seconds. It was Favre's second interception of the game and the 277th of his career, tying George Blanda's dubious career mark.

The Packers led 20-10 in the third quarter but Brian Urlacher picked off a Favre pass and on the next play, Griese threw a 19-yard scoring strike to Greg Olsen.

Early in the fourth quarter, Robbie Gould tied the score at 20 with 36-yard field goal.

The 4-and-1 Packers committed five turnovers including two fumbles by wide receiver James Jones.
