Jay CutlerThe Chicago Bears will host the Green Bay Packers in the NFC Championship Game next week after a 35-24 win over the Seattle Seahawks on Sunday.

On his first pass of the game, Bears quarterback Jay Cutler unleashed an absolutely perfect throw downfield to tight end Greg Olsen, who ran right past Seahawks safety Lawyer Milloy for a 58-yard touchdown that gave the Bears a 7-0 lead. From there Chicago ran away with it, though Seattle's two touchdowns in the final three minutes made the deficit deceivingly close.

The game confirmed that the Bears are one of the league's most complete teams, and also confirmed the Seahawks' reputation as one of the worst playoff teams in NFL history. Chicago is now a win away from the Super Bowl, and Seattle's season is over, with an 8-10 record counting the playoffs.
