I don't want to be too overly critical, but technically it's Packers vs DA BEARS...game is in Chicago.

Living in the heart of Packer country all I gotta say is Go Bears! Shhh!

Watched the Bears at NY and had to wonder who are these guys? Lol Nagy isn’t playing any of his number 1s almost like years ago with strike and replacement players. I hope the 2s and 3s are impressing other teams otherwise little point to these games. Usually regulars play a half in game 3 then sit out the final exhibition game to minimize the chance of injury. Idk imo NFL needs to ramp up competitive interest for teams to play better maybe an extra late round draft pick? Wdut?

Was listening to Hub Arkush and he was hyping the depth of the Bears defense this year, specifically at defensive backs. This preseason, for some of them, has a lot to do with becoming trade bait for other teams. But I agree, the preseason games for most teams is a snooze fest... but I am a sucker and still tune in for a little bit. Excited for the season to start, you never know what your going to get!

Snoozer for sure. Imo Nagy needs to get the 1s some game time get them ready to play have them get hit a bit in condition. I guarantee GB will be good to go
and ready to beat down some Bears after their losing season. If Nagy has the Bears ready to play good for him but I sure don’t see it in these exhibition games.

If that came true this year Chicago, and PD, would explode! Vegas has the Bears at 9.5, an intriguing betting line. I don't think the bears will win 12 games like last year but a 10-6 season will get ya into the playoffs. Definitely harder schedule, injuries of course will occur and we can only wait and see how the development of Mitch works out. I have no idea what Vikes team will show up this year and the Pack would surprise me to have an above .500 season. it should be a fun season!

Maybe you've seen it someplace else, but with all these promos and hype, hope the game this week can live up to it!

Call it as a fan no way to know how teams are jelling nobody played in preseason. Lol can’t even say Rogers will be on Mitch no idea either. Mack will be tearing things up based on zero play time last year when he dominated. Probably yellow flags all over the field. Cohen might have a good day change directions do his thing. Just have to watch see what happens.

The Pack is getting 3 for the game and I am not touching it....agreed with what you said, really tough game to pick. Will be lots of rust for both teams and some tired players by the 4th.

What a boring, sloppy penalty filled fiasco. It was almost like watching a Vikings game.

What an awful game both teams sucked. Rogers sucked less scored more points than the Bears hapless offense. Howard may have been able to to dominate the game in Q4 but not a Bear anymore. Neither team going anywhere playing like that. Yellow flags everywhere. Ugh!

Nagy was out coached by a first year head coach. There's a year of tape on Nagy and the Pack knew how to play him....and he fell right into it. Tramon Williams stated that "We wanted to make Mitch play QB," and they knew Mitch (at this point) can't take over a game. I can't remember specifically but it was 45 passes to 14 or so runs, Mitch isn't there yet.
But, its only one game...a big game...but only one. The Bears defense looked awesome and so did the Pack's D. I don't think the Pack's defense will be that dominate throughout the season. Im sure the NFL didn't want that game being displayed as the season opener!
