Self-Inflicted Recurrence: Packers Biggest Nemesis Remains Themselves

Overtime, play-action, wide receiver running a deep crossing route, heavily contested but caught, Packers lose. The Packers week 16 loss to the Bears was eerily similar to their 2014 NFC Championship loss to the Seattle Seahawks. An improbable collapse on Green Bay’s end in both games, the one common theme that continues to haunt the Packers in 2025 is their own doing.

Starting with Romeo Doubs failing to recover an onside kick. To a miscommunication between cornerbacks Nate Hobbs and Keisean Nixon on 4th down. Topped off with a fumbled snap by Malik Willis on 4th down that would turn the ball over on downs and set up a Bears game winning pass to DJ Moore soon after.
