Milwaukee drew a season high for the Packers’ beyond parody blowout of the Bears. Chicago somehow didn’t hit a season low for this game, possibly just out of sheer masochism or curiosity.
Nationally, the game drew an 11.1 rating, down 14 percent from Cowboys-Saints last year, which is no surprise given this was a 42 point game at halftime, the largest such deficit for a primetime game in NFL history.
