Packers’ next opponent hires Mike Pettine, former Green Bay coordinator
The struggling Dallas Cowboys have hired former Green Bay Packers defensive coordinator Mike Pettine to help right the ship. The Cowboys’ defense is allowing 27.2 points per game this season and has allowed a passer rating of 120.5 against, the worst mark in the NFL through five weeks of NFL action.

Packers have no league updates on Josh Jacobs’ situation
Green Bay Packers head coach Matt LaFleur stated on Monday that the team has not received any updates regarding running back Josh Jacobs’ status.

Green Bay Packers News: Unlike Bears, Packers won first and talked second
The Chicago Bears talked a big game heading into their Week 5 matchup with the Green Bay Packers. That didn’t exactly work out well for them when the two teams actually played their game on Sunday afternoon. The Packers dropped bomb after bomb on the Bears’ defense as Jordan Love connected with Christian Watson, Matthew […]
Packers Winners and Losers: Week 5 vs. the Bears
Chicago Bears head coach Ben Johnson said he wanted blowouts, and a blowout is exactly what he got as the Green Bay Packers hosted their division rivals and won in commanding fashion, 31-7.

Packers Week 5 Snap Counts: Kaleb Johnson slides
The Green Bay Packers beat the Chicago Bears 31-7. It was very enjoyable. We should do this every weekend. Beyond the win, though, let’s look at the Packers’ snap counts to see what is staying the same and what is changing as the season unfolds. For the most part, we know what this squad is, […]
Packers fear Javon Hargrave tore his Achilles
Green Bay Packers head coach Matt LaFleur opened up his press conference on Sunday by stating that the win over the Chicago Bears was “bittersweet,” as it didn’t “look good” for defensive lineman Javon Hargrave. Hargrave went down late against the Bears in garbage time and was carted off the field. When asked for more […]
Packers vs. Bears Final Score: Jordan Love dismantles Chicago with deep ball in 31-7 win
Maybe facing the Chicago Bears really was what the doctor ordered after all. On Sunday in Week 5, and for the first time all season, the Green Bay Packers looked like a team capable of contending in 2026. For all of his downplaying of any personal animosity against Ben Johnson, Matt LaFleur kept sticking with […]

Bears at Packers, Week 5: Opponent Preview
The Chicago Bears (3-1) come to Lambeau as a 2.5- to 3-point favorite, the Bears’ first time favored in Green Bay in 20 years. Caleb Williams (Grade 2 hamstring) is listed as questionable, so Tyson Bagent will likely start. Ben Johnson has won with three different quarterbacks this season, and the Bears’ defense has held […]
Packers Film Room: Week 4 Interceptions and a game-clinching pressure
The Green Bay Packers intercepted Tampa Bay Buccaneers QB Jalon Daniels two times in week four and we covered one of them briefly in another article. They nearly had a third interception to end the game but it was overturned to incomplete in replay. It’s still worth breaking down and mentioning. Today we’ll go a […]
Packers fans expect a losing record in NFC North games
The Green Bay Packers play their second divisional game this Sunday against the Chicago Bears.

The Green Bay Packers have a chance to exorcise some recent demons on Sunday afternoon.

The “firsts” of Packers’ top performances against the Bears
Normally I write about the best performances against a particular team in the lead-up to that week’s game. But against an opponent as old as the Bears, I think we should dig a little deeper. The Packers have been playing against the Bears for virtually their entire history and have had great performances throughout that […]
How the Packers defense overwhelmed Jalon Daniels
Last Sunday, the Green Bay Packers defense bounced back after an abysmal performance in week three by tightening up and overwhelming a lifeless Buccaneers offense. They forced two interceptions on backup quarterback Jalon Daniels, making his first NFL start for the injured Baker Mayfield, and held the Bucs offense to 86 non-scrambling rushing yards. The […]
Why Edgerrin Cooper’s absence is a big deal
It’s easy to understand that Green Bay Packers off-ball linebacker Edgerrin Cooper was (and still likely is) a budding star, and an incredibly important player for the Packers. You don’t need any fancy numbers or a scout’s eye to pick him out, he’s the kind of player that just looks different. Even among professional athletes, […]
Green Bay Packers News: Running back committee remains unsettled
Good luck trying to predict which of the Green Bay Packers’ running backs is going to lead the way on any given week at this point. The trio of MarShawn Lloyd, Kaleb Johnson, and Chris Brooks have struggled mightily so far this season, and although each of them had some high points in last Sunday’s […]

The Green Bay Packers announced on Thursday that they have signed running back Pierre Strong Jr. to the active roster, giving them a fourth option if the team can’t play Chris Brooks on Sunday against the Chicago Bears.

Burton is the only player whose status changed today. Players who remain as non-participants are left guard Aaron Banks (knee/toe), running back […]
Green Bay Packers News: Baby steps for Packers run game
The Packers’ offensive line woes this year are well documented, and they tend to lead the public discourse about the team. Rightfully so. Dive just beyond the surface, though, and the true ouroboros becomes more clear. A unique combination of intense pass rushing teams, green linemen, and a startlining lack of schematic understanding has made […]
