Although the temperature at kickoff was eight degrees, the Bears put up a pair of first-quarter touchdowns on their way to a 14-0 lead at the break.
Chicago tacked on two more touchdown scores in the third quarter for a 28-3 advantage, thus putting the game out of reach for the offensively-challenged Browns.
Caleb Williams finished 17 of 28 for 242 yards and two touchdowns. The second-year QB had completed fewer than 60 percent of his passes in his previous six outings.
Additionally, the Bears held Cleveland to 192 total yards and converted three turnovers into 17 points.
On the other side, the Packers' four-game win streak was snapped with a 34-26 loss to the Denver Broncos.

The Packers held a 23-14 lead early in the third quarter. However, the home team finished the game with a 20-3 surge en route to an impressive come-from-behind win.
Green Bay was hot early, scoring on each of its first five drives. Unfortunately, the offense produced just one field goal in its last six possessions.
Here's a look at what you need to know for both teams ahead of this Week 16 matchup.
Chicago has dropped 12 of the previous 13 meetings in this series. That stretch includes a 0-6 record at home. So while the Bears are a vastly different team than we've seen in years past, look for the green and gold to get the win in this divisional showdown.
