The Green Bay Packers opened their week of prep for Sunday’s matchup with the Chicago Bears looking as healthy as they’ve been in a long time — and of course, that lines up just in time for a critical battle with Chicago at Lambeau Field. Several Packers returned to practice on Wednesday, including three players designated for return from injured reserve. Running back MarShawn Lloyd, defensive end Brenton Cox, and defensive end Collin Oliver were all back after lengthy absences. Lloy...

After his week 13 performance, where he ran the ball 18 times for 125 yards and a TD (6.9ypc), Chicago Bears running back D’Andre Swift was awarded FedEx Air and Ground Player of the Week. He shared the award this week with Green Bay Packers quarterback Jordan Love. It seems like the greatest rivalry in […]

The Green Bay Packers and Chicago Bears took very different approaches to their Wednesday practice schedule. The Packers, off their mini-bye after playing the Detroit Lions, had a fully padded practice, which they are only allowed three of in the final six weeks of the NFL season per the collective bargaining agreement. Meanwhile, the Bears, […]

At different points in his college career, Green Bay Packers rookie fifth-round pick Collin Oliver was either a true edge rusher or an off-ball linebacker. Oliver, who injured his hamstring before training camp, has been missing from the practice field since the mid-summer, so fans haven’t gotten much of an opportunity to figure out how […]

Devonte Wyatt’s season is done, and his mangled ankle now leaves a gaping hole in the Packers’ defense. The Packers’ defensive line was thin enough without Wyatt’s untimely injury, and now that he’s gone, they’ll have to make do with what they have on hand as they try to sustain their Super Bowl aspirations. The […]

Devonte Wyatt’s season-ending injury is a major blow to the Green Bay Packers. The fourth-year defensive tackle has played 379 snaps on defense this season, contributing 27 total tackles, two pass breakups, and four sacks. Without his availability, the team’s interior defensive line depth will be tested over the remainder of the season, with young […]

About two weeks ago, the NFL decided to flex the Green Bay Packers’ Week 14 matchup with the Chicago Bears from the early afternoon time slot into the late afternoon. The reason was simple: to get a critical NFC North matchup in front of more eyeballs. Now that TV broadcast maps are out, it’s clear […]

There are two certainties in an NFL season. The first is that attrition will take its toll at some point. No team makes it through a year unscathed. Sooner or later, someone, very likely more than one someone, will go down. It’s a fact of life. People get hurt playing professional football. The second is […]

Playing in the Black Friday Game makes it feel like the Bears last stepped foot on a playing field forever ago. And with their Week 14 game being a 3:25 p.m. CT start, the wait will feel that much longer. I hope they make it worth it for us! Speaking of start times, the Bears-Packers Week 16 game now has a 7:20 p.m. CT kickoff. It will make the first night game at Soldier Field since 2019 between these long-time rivals. I imagine that when (if?) the new stadium gets built, we will get m...

The Green Bay Packers made three roster moves on Tuesday, releasing receiver Michael Woods II and cornerback Tyron Herring from the practice squad while adding cornerback Shemar Bartholomew. This left the Packers with one open spot on the practice squad, which Sports Illustrated’s Bill Huber is now reporting that will be used to re-sign receiver […]

Oh, baby! The Chicago Bears decided to give the Haters the middle finger on Black Friday and announce to the NFL world that they are for real. The Haters are still clinging to “Oh, well, the Eagles are collapsing! They still haven’t beaten anyone!” Beat the Packers, and they’ll blame the Tucker Kraft injury. It’ll […]

The Green Bay Packers worked out six players on Tuesday, their off day this week, following three moves on their practice squad. The Packers have an open roster spot on their 17-man practice squad right now, but the assumption I’m working with is that the team will attempt to re-sign receiver Will Sheppard, who the […]

Yesterday, the Green Bay Packers announced that receiver Will Sheppard would be waived from the 53-man roster. To get him back on the practice squad, should he clear waivers, the Packers needed to make a corresponding roster move, as their practice squad was full after the re-signing of kicker Lucas Havrisik last week. They made […]

It may be stupid that the Packers are just now playing the Bears for the first time this season, but at least the game is going to matter. I’m firmly of the opinion that things are better when Packers/Bears games matter, and for too long, they haven’t. The Bears are the Packers’ oldest rival, and […]
