Fun facts.

What could be better than tying up the all-time Packers-Bears series in the bitter cold?

You can BET the Bears will be trying to knock us out of the playoff race.
We better be prepared and keep our foot on the gas all game.
There is no CUTLER to save us!

I remember as a kid in the 80s, looking at that record, thinking about how long it would take to pull that even.

We've come a long way baby!

We've gone from here: Instant Replay Game 
To here: Favre to Brooks 99 yards in '95 
To here: Shoryuken Rodgers to Jennings in '09 
To here: Raji's Pick six in 2010 NFCCG 
To here: Rodgers to Cobb W17 2013 season 
To here: Rodgers to Nelson 60 yards 

Since 1989, Packers have gone 39-18 against Chicago with a whole lot of other memorable and other not so memorable moments in between. Bears won 8 straight from 85-88 during the Ditka years. That left the all time series at 76-55-6 in favor of Chicago. It's taken 28 seasons and almost the entire careers of two franchise QBs to even that all time series back up at 94 a piece. I know I missed plenty of other highlights, but these are the ones that have stuck out in my mind as a fan or that I could at least find highlights of. 👍

I can't remember what year it was, but the Packers were in throwback uniforms, and I THINK it was a Halloween game. The wind was so bad that if a punter punted into the wind, the ball would practically come right back to him. Brett Favre had a big TD run in that game.
I wish I had a tape of that one!

Good job RainX.
There are a few memorable games. Cheesey I think your game was a Monday night when da bares retired Butkus and Sayers jerseys. 1994
The one I think about is Christmas night in Green Bay. My son was back from Afghanistan, graduated college in December and it was his bday. He wanted to go to the game so I dug deep and bought tickets. It was a lot like yesterday cold. GB was expecting to win and they let Chicago hang around most of the game .

Just saw your post WPR. You maybe right but there was a horrible Halloween game as well. very cold, windy and rainy.

Mucky Tundra (18h) : Myers isn't even the 3rd best C on the roster atm
Martha Careful (18h) : I am not sure I understand the Myers hate. He was consistently our third best lineman. RG and LT were worse.
beast (23h) : Just saying I don't think moving Myers would help Myers.
beast (23h) : Center is usually considered the easiest position physically if you can handle the snap stuff.
Mucky Tundra (8-May) : Bust it is then

Mucky Tundra (8-May) : For now...
Zero2Cool (8-May) : Packers go about evaluating their "best five," OL coach Luke Butkus makes on thing clear: "Josh Myers is our center."
beast (8-May) : Though I'm a bit surprised letting go of CBs, I thought we needed more not less
beast (8-May) : It was confusing with two DB Anthony Johnson anyways
Zero2Cool (8-May) : Packers actually had Ray Lewis on the phone.

Zero2Cool (6-May) : Walter Stanely's son
buckeyepackfan (6-May) : and released CB Anthony Johnson and DL Deandre Johnson and waived/injured WR Thyrick Pitts (thigh-rick).
buckeyepackfan (6-May) : The Green Bay Packers have signed WR Julian Hicks, OL Lecitus Smith (luh-SEET-us) and WR Dimitri Stanley
Zero2Cool (6-May) : Petty, but it's annoying me how the NFL is making the schedule release an event.
Mucky Tundra (4-May) : @mattschneidman Matt LaFleur on how he tore his pec: “Got in a fight with the bench press. I lost.”
Zero2Cool (3-May) : Jordan Love CAN sign an extension as of today. Might tak weeks/months though

Zero2Cool (2-May) : Season officially ending tonight for Bucks ... sad face
Zero2Cool (2-May) : Giannis Antetokounmpo is listed as out for tonight's game.
dfosterf (2-May) : Surprisingly low initially is my guess cap wise, but gonna pay the piper after that
dfosterf (2-May) : The number on Love is going to be brutal.
Zero2Cool (2-May) : May 3rd. Extension day for Jordan Love. (soonest)
Zero2Cool (1-May) : USFL MVP QB Alex McGough moved to WR. So that's why no WR drafted!
earthquake (1-May) : Packers draft starters at safety ever few years. Collins, Clinton-Dix, Savage
beast (1-May) : Why can't the rookies be a day 1 starter? Especially when we grabbed 3 of them at the position
dfosterf (1-May) : Not going to be shocked if Gilmore goes to the Lions.
dfosterf (1-May) : I hear you dhazer, but my guess would be Gilmore Colts and Howard Vikings from what little has been reported.
Mucky Tundra (30-Apr) : S learn from McKinney who learns from Hafley who learns from the fans. Guaranteed Super Bowl
Zero2Cool (30-Apr) : could*
Zero2Cool (29-Apr) : Safeties should learn from Xavier.
dhazer (29-Apr) : And what about grabbing a Gilmore or Howard at CB ? Those are all Free Agents left
dhazer (29-Apr) : out of curiosity do they try and sign Simmons or Hyde to let these young safeties learn from, they can't be day 1 starters.
Zero2Cool (29-Apr) : I miss having Sam Shields.
Zero2Cool (29-Apr) : Not that he's making excuses, just pointing it out
Zero2Cool (29-Apr) : That's for dang sure. Make our erratic kicker have no excuse!
packerfanoutwest (28-Apr) : having a great long snapper is gold
