Yes, some people say we were lucky, and we were. But we also earned it and played great. Every team has luck during the season. But it goes both ways too, fans will also say we were unlucky if we have a losing season.
I will never forget the Tennessee vs. Arkansas game from 1998. UT was ranked #1 and undefeated while Arkansas was #6 and undefeated. Arkansas led like 24-20 and were driving down the to put up more points before the end of the game in order to seal the win. However, their quarterback, Clint Stoerner, literally "laid the ball down" on the ground, and we pounced on the ball and recovered it. A few plays later, Travis Henry leaps into the end zone for the game winning touchdown, and the rest was history. We went on to win the National Championship.
The Bears have known luck a few times, with some of those times coming last season, and even during the Super Bowl season, we got lucky in the Cardinals game when we should have never won it to begin with.

but same for all teams.. "if" desean jackson doesn't get that lucky Punt return and the punter kicks it out of bounds( and blowing s 34-7 lead in 4th), the packers aren't even in the playoffs... or in a very ironic twist in week 4, detriot is losing by 5 in the 4th quarter, and kick offs and jordy nelson fumbles the kickoff at the 20 and detriot just needs to punch it for the go ahead TD and "W" but scheffler drops the short td pass... of course bears "lucky" against lions but packers you never hear the same luck do you.. : )

Oh, of course not. The Packers are the greatest team ever according to some people on here.

Well, they do have the most championships, and won last years.... hard to argue that point at all.

That may be true, but we're the winningest franchise, and have a winning record over the Packers.
But I'm not going to do you the injustice of getting into a pissing contest since you're probably brain drained from your skirmish with DB.

Would you rather have the most wins, or the most championships?

While you can have both, at the moment Bears have one, packers have the other.
Which would you rather have Dags? Most wins and lead in the all time rivalry OR most championships?
Come on, answer the question!
