They tallied just 215 total yards, 46 rushing and a net 169 passing, only 10 first downs.    The defense and special teams stepped up and won that game. Tracy White recovered a fumble in the end zone for their only td and the coverage team forced a late fumble on a punt and Mason Crosby kicked the game winner in the final 2 seconds. Only about 40 seconds before that he had kicked the second of his 3 field goals in his first NFL game to tie it 13-13.    The Great Bratt Faver: 23 of 42 with no td's and 1 interception.    That showing didn't keep the Packers from going on to a 13-3 season. Compare that game to the Bears Sunday night and there's a feeling of deja vu all over again.</blockquote>
