Latest news and updates about the Packers
The Chicago Bears and Green Bay Packers meet up on Sunday, and some years when these two teams meet, the records don’t matter, but this is not one of those years. The (9-3) Bears are trying to maintain their division and conference lead over the (8-3-1) Packers, so the stakes are elevated. Each team just […]

The Green Bay Packers have officially dropped no game status for both defensive tackle Karl Brooks and linebacker Quay Walker. Brooks only played four snaps against the Minnesota Vikings two weeks ago and was inactive against the Detroit Lions on Thanksgiving, but is now set to be the replacement starter in place of Devonte Wyatt. […]

If there’s any way that the Green Bay Packers can make a statement this Sunday against the Chicago Bears, it’s by stopping the run. The Bears made their case as a legitimate NFC contender on Black Friday, winning convincingly against the Philadelphia Eagles thanks to a combined 281 rushing yards and 6.0 yards per carry […]

Rome Odunze is having a marvelous season, which is why it stung to see the Chicago Bears injury report rule out the talented wide receiver from Sunday’s upcoming game against the Green Bay Packers. Odunze missed practice all week because of a foot injury and will be unavailable for the grudgematch between the long-time rivals. That part is the bad news. The good news (I swear I’m using this term in the loosest of possible ways) is that the Bears are well-equipped to deal with one of their...

After a disappointing outing on Thanksgiving Day against the Green Bay Packers, the Detroit Lions were looking to bounce back during their Week 14 matchup with the Dallas Cowboys on “Thursday Night Football.” And in what was essentially a must-win for the Lions in order to keep their playoff hopes alive, they answered the call […]

Hate is a strong word, but I really, really, really don’t like you. I never thought I’d reference a Plain White T’s song in a BN Bears post, but all bets are off when Bears-Packers Week arrives. One of the NFL’s longest-running rivalries has grown stale in recent years, mostly because Chicago’s organizaitonal ineptitude hand-delivering the all-time series lead to Green Bay in recent years. However, the arrival of the Ben Johnson era has shaken things up a bit. And while we aren’t at ...

Ben Johnson couldn’t help but fire the first jab in what could become a bi-annual fixture we see for a bit between his Chicago Bears and Matt LaFleur’s Green Bay Packers. “I’ve got a tremendous amount of respect for the coaches and the players in this [division],” Johnson said in January while being introduced as […]

The Chicago Bears have spent the last month passing every possible test their schedule threw at them. They beat bad teams, and they beat good teams. After weeks of eeking out victories with wild comebacks and late-game heroics, the Bears went out and absolutely physically dominated the defending Super Bowl champion Philadelphia Eagles last Friday. […]

There is no team with whom the Packers have a deeper, longer, and richer history than the Chicago Bears. The Packers have been playing the Bears for more than a century, and in that time there have been some truly outstanding performances. Here’s a look at a few of them, dating back to almost every […]

This week I am catching up after a busier than normal holiday week with some week 12 and week 13 film breakdowns, starting with the Green Bay Packers’ defensive performance in Week 12. The Minnesota Vikings ducked out of Lambeau after a Sunday afternoon loss 23-6 loss at Lambeau to the Packers and a game […]

The Detroit Lions’ season seemed like it was on life support after a loss to the Green Bay Packers. However, the Lions looked much more like a contender the following Thursday, dumping 44 points on the Dallas Cowboys in an impressive win to keep their postseason dreams alive. Jared Goff finished 309 yards, and Jahmyr […]

The Packers stepped out into single-digit temperatures on Thursday, using the cold Lambeau conditions as prep for Sunday’s Bears -Packers matchup — a game expected to kick off in similar frigid conditions. Head coach Matt LaFleur stressed the importance of practicing outside this week, but even with the cold-weather dress rehearsal, Green Bay’s roster walked into Thursday with more questions than answers . The biggest development: nickel defender Javon Bullard (ankle) did not participate ...

This is the biggest regular-season Chicago Bears game since… last week. The Bears beat the defending Super Bowl champion Philadelphia Eagles a week ago in a first-place vs. first-place battle, but this Sunday is the Bears vs. the Green Bay Packers with the division lead on the line is as big as it gets. On […]

Green Bay Packers head coach Matt LaFleur stayed away from it. Defensive coordinator Jeff Hafley stayed away from it. But offensive coordinator Adam Stenavich was willing to make a statement about what Chicago Bears head coach Ben Johnson said in his opening press conference. If you need a reminder, Johnson was surprisingly hired by the […]

I have seen many a Green Bay Packer fan referring to the Chicago Bears and their lofty 9-3 record as “frauds.” I understand the impulse and would like nothing more than to join everyone in ridiculing the flaws of our neighbors to the South, but I don’t think that “fraud” is the right word. It […]

Here’s the bad news up front: Green Bay Packers safety Javon Bullard, who has been starting for the team as a nickelback this year, went from a limited participant on Wednesday to a non-participant on Thursday. His injury designation remains as “ankle,” so it’s possible that he’s had a setback with the ankle injury that […]

I find myself gearing up at another level for this week’s Bears-Packers game now that we have reached the other side of Hump Day. And for me, that means I’m diving into what Bears Head Coach Ben Johnson has to say about his team’s upcoming opponent. For the record, I do not like saying nice things about the Green Bay Packers. They are the bane of my football existence, and I know I’m not the only Bears fan who feels that way. That team has caused me pigskin heartbreak more times than...

Green Bay Packers safety Javon Bullard has been dealing with a nagging ankle injury recently, but he hasn’t missed any action to date. After the team’s fully padded practice on Wednesday, though, Bullard was a non-participant in practice on Thursday, along with receiver Savion Williams, defensive end Lukas Van Ness and defensive tackle Devonte Wyatt […]

One of the most frequently asked questions I’ve gotten this week is how the Green Bay Packers will replace starting defensive tackle Devonte Wyatt, who should be going on season-ending injured reserve any day now with an ankle injury that he sustained in last week’s win over the Detroit Lions. Yes, the Packers added a […]

Behold your new king: Green Bay Packers wide receiver Dontayvion Wicks is the Week 13 NVP. For those of you who aren’t hip, NVP stands for Nickelodeon Valuable Player and is awarded on their weekly Slime Time show, hosted by Nate Burleson and Dylan “Young Dylan” Gilmer. Wicks gained this great honor by catching 6 […]

When the Green Bay Packers and Chicago Bears meet on Sunday, it probably won’t be a flashy contest, but rather a 60-minute ball control battle. As Bill Huber recently outlined, the Packers’ offense is among the most careful in the league when it comes to turnovers, while the Bears’ defense leads the NFL in takeaways. […]

With five games left on their regular season schedule, the 2025 Packers are essentially a known commodity. There is very little about this team that can change in a meaningful way as we come down the stretch. But that’s not to say there are no changes at all. There is still a little wiggle room […]

There is nothing quite like Packers week. Or maybe there’s nothing like Packers week when the Bears are good. It’s been quite a while since the Chicago Bears and Green Bay Packers met in December and both teams had a winning record and playoff spots on the line. I believe it was 2001. It’s a […]

After the Packers handed the Lions another disappointing Thanksgiving—completing the season sweep and flipping the script after Dan Campbell previously had Matt LaFleur’s number, while adding insult to injury with fourth-down success—Detroit now finds itself backed against the wall in terms of postseason survival. As Campbell put it this week, “time’s running out,” and the […]
