"Bears linebackers Lance Briggs and Brian Urlacher took over in the fourth quarter Sunday, much like they did in last season's NFC title game and in last year's Bears-Packers matchup at Soldier Field.

They kept their team within striking distance by creating two takeaways. Briggs stripped Packers running back James Starks, and the fumble was recovered by Julius Peppers. The turnover resulted in a Bears touchdown.

On Green Bay's next series, Urlacher dove to intercept an Aaron Rodgers pass intended for tight end Jermichael Finley.

"I was just doing my zone drop," Urlacher said. "I happened to be in the right area.""
