For the first time since 1991, the Green Bay Packers (5-8-1, 1-3-1 NFC North) will have back-to-back losing seasons after falling to the Chicago Bears (10-4, 4-1 NFC North) 24-17 Sunday. With the win, the Bears clinch the NFC North Division for the first time since 2010 and officially eliminated the Packers from playoff contention.
Remember when this division was a pushover? It was merely an appetizer for the Packers en route to yet another division title.
Not anymore because the NFC North is the best division in the league.
There was only 2:39 left on the clock for Aaron Rodgers and the Green Bay Packers to pull off what would be a historic comeback to open the Packers’ 100th season. It was enough, and the Packers (1-0, 1-0 NFC North) stunned the Bears 24-23 (0-1, 0-1 NFC North) off a 75-yard touchdown from wide receiver Randall Cobb, after trailing 17-0 at halftime.
Jordan Love will reportedly welcome Christian Watson, Romeo Doubs and Aaron Jones to his offseason workouts in California as the young Packers offense looks to get on the same page heading into 2023.
