Latest news and updates about the Packers
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 […]
As I’ve mentioned previously, one of the stats I’ve been tracking this season is something I’ve been calling Explosive +/-. Basically, it’s looking at how many explosive plays you’re creating on offense vs. how many you’re giving up on defense. Per a study by Brian Billick, teams that have had a +2 Explosive +/- in […]
The latest Prisco’s Week 14 NFL picks: Packers beat Bears, Cowboys keep rolling | CBS Sports This is a playoff game for these two. Loser has major problems and likely won’t make it. The Texans are also playing consecutive road games. But that defense is impressive. Even so, give me the Chiefs and Patrick Mahomes to stay […]
THE DAILY SPONGIE SPECIAL BEARSSSSSS Packers QB Jordan Love heard Ben Johnson’s dig at his coach but doesn’t add fuel to rivalry – Chicago Sun-Times Packers coach Matt LaFleur was the subject of arrows from Johnson in his introductory press conference, when the new Bears coach said he enjoyed beating LaFleur twice a year. First-and-10: […]
This story stream will be your week-long open thread to discuss anything leading up to the Chicago Bears vs Green Bay Packers game and anything after, and we’ll keep it pinned to our front page for easy access. The Bears and Packers first played each other in 1921, and the Packers hold the all-time edge […]
As we get closer to the end of the 2025 season, the surging Cowboys have suddenly moved into the NFC playoff conversation. One big wrinkle for Dallas, and the also-contending Green Bay Packers, is their tie result from Week 4. What does this standings anomaly mean for Dallas and the rest of the conference in […]
As the Chicago Bears prepare for their 13th game of the season against the Green Bay Packers on Sunday, the first official team injury reports for week 14 have been released. The Bears did not practice on Wednesday, so player participation listed on the injury report is an estimation. Altogether, four Bears were listed as […]
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 […]
We are back with a new episode of “Before the Roar” to get ready for a huge “Thursday Night Football” game between the Detroit Lions and the Dallas Cowboys. After a tough loss to the Green Bay Packers on Thanksgiving, the Lions find themselves in a must-win situation in Week 14 in order to keep […]
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 […]
