The Chicago Bears have beaten the Minnesota Vikings and have won the NFC North Division.
Hester set the NFL record for all-time return touchdowns with his 14th. Hester nearly set the record with the opening kickoff of the second half when he returned the ball all the way to the Minnesota Vikings' five-yard line.
Every Bears loss has felt devastating this season. Jay Cutler was nearly sacked to death in New York. You don't lose to Seattle at home. You don't lose to the Redskins at home.

Julius peppers was named the NFC Defensive Player of the Month for his performance in the four Bears' wins in November. Jay Cutler also received an award for his performance against the Philadelphia Eagles.
For three years now, one common question Bears fans always have is: Why was Devin Hester taken off kick return duties?
This was by far the best Bears' win this season. It was also Jay Cutler's best game as a Chicago Bear, and not just because of the stats.
We are not even through two seasons since Jay Cutler became a Bear, and it already feels like a long story: spectacular touchdowns undermined by inexcusable interceptions, petulant shoulder shrugs interpreted for greater meaning, and club-hopping with quasi-famous TV arm-candy.
With a record of 7-3, the Bears aren't a joke. But I still can't take them seriously. Can you?
Hester was a dynamic, game changing returner before the Bears started the process of turning him into a number one receiver. And Hester might not be too far off from reaching that point.
Coming off two consecutive wins, the Bears prepare to take on the Miami Dolphins. A win against the banged up Dolphins would help the Bears establish themselves as a playoff team.
Let me first say that I'm against the Thursday Night Game. I think it's unfair to players. Usually guys don't start feeling normal again until Wednesday.
Once again, the Chicago Bears are getting many happy returns from Devin Hester.
Who would have thought that the Bears would be 6-3 at this point of the season? Certainly not me and, dare I say, not many of you. But the fact remains that after their 27-13 victory over Minnesota on Sunday, the Bears are tied with Green Bay on top of the NFC North division.
Chicago Bears battled back and forth with the Minnesota Vikings but were able to close them out for the win. LISTEN: GAME HIGHLIGHTS, LOVIE SMITH
Hola from Toronto...wait that doesn't sound quite right. Anyway, the Bears find themselves in a must-win situation north of the border. The road to the playoffs becomes a lot more difficult if they leave Canada 4-4. Everyone at Halas Hall will feel vindicated in their off-week activities if the Bears can beat the winless Bills.
Outside of the Carolina game, the Bears have been primarily a passing offense. However, against the lowly Bills it would be a crime not to commit to the run.
The stats don't lie and neither does the film. Despite both of those, Cutler and Martz see reason for optimism.
Jon Ryan took a hard hit by Earl Bennett late in the game between the Bears and Seahawks. Devin Hester caught the punt and ran it 89 yards for a touchdown, Bennet blocked Ryan which allowed the TD. However, Ryan's ribs are injured and the seriousness of it is unknown at the moment.
Seattle harasses the Bears on their turf. Banging away at Jay Cutler and the home team on the way to a 23-20 Seahawks win. MONDAYS WITH LOVIE - AUDIO HIGHLIGHTS - PHOTOS
