Packers vs Bears Preview
This is, without a doubt, the most intriguing — and arguably important — game this series has seen in years. Both teams are hoping their respective starting quarterbacks can take the frianchise to the next level. The Jordan Love era begins for Green Bay in this one. The Packers averaged 21.8 points a game on offense, but it was an offense led by former QB Aaron Rodgers, who headed East to play for the Jets.
“We’ve had a long period of time knowing that this day was coming,” Packers head coach Matt LaFleur said about Love taking the reins at QB. “I think he’s excited. I think he’ll be the same guy. I’ve got complete confidence, just seeing how he responded a year ago when he went into that Philly game. I thought he’s been outstanding throughout the course of the preseason. I think he’s a guy that has shown improvement each and every week. Really, just really excited for him to get that opportunity.”
On the other side, Chicago is looking for its starting QB, Justin Fields, to take the next step as a passer. The Bears finished with the worst record in the league last year at 3-14, but Fields showed flashes, and if he can elevate his game, all arrows will be pointing up for the Bears. The team needs to be its arch rival before it does anything else, though.
Green Bay has won 24 of its last 29 games against Chicago. The last time the Bears won a game in the series was in December of 2018, which was also the last time Chicago won the NFC North. The Bears are also 8-11 against the Packers in season openers, but Fields says he’s not thinking about the past.
“Of course it’s a big rivalry, but it’s just Game 1,” Fields said. “It’s the most important game of the season, so I’m not really looking back towards history. I’m looking toward now. Like I said before, we’ve got a different team this year. Last year, that was last year, so it’s a different year. But yeah, I mean we don’t really care what happened in the past. That doesn’t affect what’s gonna happen on Sunday. We’re just looking to go out there, play our best and put our best foot forward.”
