What is the story about?
It’s just about time for the Green Bay Packers and Chicago Bears to kick off their first meeting of the 2026 regular season. The NFL’s oldest rivals renew their rivalry, playing for the 214th time in history today with the Packers holding a nine-game lead overall in the teams’ head-to-head history.
Chicago comes in as 1.5-point favorites today, despite being the road team and likely to have Tyson Bagent starting at quarterback for the injured Caleb Williams.
