With a less than percent chance to win while down 10 in the fourth quarter, the Chicago Bears pulled off one of the greatest comebacks in franchise history. The team’s 22-16 victory over the Green Bay Packers will be talked about forever,

While many are talking about Caleb Williams’ perfect touchdown pass to DJ Moore to seal the game, the Bears’ special teams unit were the unsung heroes for the game.

Cairo Santos made every single kick including a 51 yarder in very tough wind conditions. He then was able to kick a successful onside kick to give the Bears the ball back with 1:59 to go in regulation.

The onside kick was recovered by a rising special teams star, Josh Blackwell. Head coach Ben Johnson gave Blackwell major praise regarding how much of an impact he has had on special teams.

According to Bear Report’s Zack Pearson, Johnson told the media that he believes that Blackwell is one of the best special teams players in the entire NFL.

I couldn’t agree more. Blackwell has been an unsung hero for the Bears.

The defensive back blocked the field goal to win in Week 4 against the Raiders. He impressed many with his blocking on kickoffs throughout the season, he’s show ability to help down punts in deep territory as well.

Blackwell also had that impressive trick play punt return touchdown in last season’s Week 18 finale over the Packers.

The Bears’ special teamer is without a doubt having a pro bowl caliber season and was one of the biggest reasons the Bears pulled off an improbable comeback over the Packers.
