Jordan Love's performance may not have been perfect, but the Packers could not have asked for more from their new quarterback.
Chicago has huge decisions awaiting since it owns the No. 1 pick in next year's NFL draft, thanks to a trade with league-worst Carolina.
The Packers will be looking to return to the playoffs with a win over the Bears at Lambeau Field. Here's how to watch, updated odds and more.
Rookie quarterback Caleb Williams was sacked seven times and Chicago, which trailed 24-10 at halftime, suffered its seventh straight loss on Sunday.
Joe Burrow is not only the NFL's highest-paid quarterback, he is the leader of a draft class that in a short time is making a run to be one of the best. The 2020 QB draft class has had one of its own in the Super Bowl the past two seasons — Burrow with the Cincinnati Bengals in 2021 and Jalen Hurts last season with the Philadelphia Eagles. Justin Herbert of the Los Angeles Chargers has the most passing yards by a player in his first three seasons while Tua Tagovailoa helped lead the Miami Dolphins to their first playoff appearance since 2016. With Jordan Love taking over in Green Bay, Sunday will mark the first time since 2012 that the top five selected quarterbacks in a draft class will start in a season opener.
