The Packers–Bears rivalry is officially back, and it couldn’t return at a bigger moment. In this week’s live episode of Packers Weekly, we dive into the revival of the NFL’s oldest rivalry now that the Bears are no longer a rebuilding footnote, but a legitimate, dangerous opponent — and the Packers’ playoff matchup this weekend. The energy feels different, the stakes feel heavier, and for the first time in years, this matchup actually means something again.
We break down how the Bears’ improvement has reignited the rivalry, why Packers fans should take this game seriously, and what this moment represents for the future of the NFC North.
