The Bears–Packers rivalry is a sports rivalry between two professional American football teams in the National Football League (NFL), the Chicago Bears and the Green Bay Packers. The two clubs have won a combined 21 NFL championships (including 4 Super Bowls) and have 48 members in the Pro Football Hall of Fame.
The rivalry began in 1921[1] and is the league's longest rivalry, with 181 regular-season and post-season games. Because both clubs are in the same division—the NFC North—they play each other twice every regular season.
Chicago currently leads the all-time series, 92–83–6, but the inclusion of Green Bay's 12-5 pre-season advantage would reduce Chicago's edge to 97-95-6.

Notable moments and games
- Bears 6, Packers 3 (November 23, 1924) – The Bears-Packers rivalry can be credited for the first ever ejection of players for fighting during a game. The Bears' Frank Hanny and the Packers' Walter Voss were ejected before the end of the first half as verbal exchanges led to punches being thrown. Two years later, Hanny was ejected once again in a game versus Green Bay.
- Bears 33, Packers 14 (December 14, 1941) – In the first playoff meeting between these two rivals, the Bears defeated the Packers 33–14 in a one-game-playoff to determine the Western Division championship. After the Packers, the Bears defeated the New York Giants en route to their fourth NFL Championship. Until the 2010 post-season, this remained the only playoff meeting between the teams.
- Packers 49, Bears 0 (September 30, 1962) – Vince Lombardi's Packers shutout the George Halas' Bears, 49-0 at City Stadium, the Packers largest margin of victory in the rivalry. Strangely, the team repeated that exact score against the Eagles six weeks later on Nov. 11, 1962. The games remain a Packers team record for most points in a shutout victory. After again humiliating the Bears later in the season, this time by a score of 38-7, the Packers would go on to win their 8th NFL championship. Motivated by the two humiliating losses to the Packers, Halas would spend the off season focusing on beating the Packers. In 1963, when the Bears would hand the Packers their only two losses, and would themselves win their 8th NFL championship.
- Packers 23, Bears 12 (September 13, 1964) – Remembered as the "Free Kick Game" because the Packers invoked the surprising "Fair catch kick rule", which allows for a place or drop kick field goal attempt from the spot of a fair catch. Elijah Pitts fair caught a Bears punt on the Bears' 48 yard-line just before the end of the first half. Packers' coach Vince Lombardi opted to attempt a free kick. Confusion ensued as neither team had ever so much as even practiced a free kick. The Packers lined up at the line of scrimmage with Bart Starr holding for Paul Hornung. Hornung made the 52-yard field goal as the first half ended. The Packers stunned all in attendance with the kick, and went on to win the game 23-12.
- Bears 13, Packers 10 (November 3, 1968) - The Bears got their revenge on the Packers, beating them 13-10 on a fair catch free kick by Mac Percival.
- Bears 2, Packers 0 (August 7, 1971) – It was only an exhibition — Dan Devine's first as head coach of the Packers — but it will long be remembered as an exercise in futility. The Bears won when 6-foot-7 quarterback Frank Patrick of the Packers, who had been drafted as a tight end the year before and miscast as a quarterback, faded back to pass in the third quarter and faded too far, beyond the end line at Milwaukee's County Stadium for a safety and the only score of the game.
- Packers 12, Bears 6 (September 7, 1980) - With the score tied 6-6 and the game in overtime, Packers kicker Chester Marcol was called in to attempt a game-winning field goal. The Bears’ Alan Page managed to break through a block the field goal, with the football hitting his helmet. The ball rebounded back to the bespectacled Marcol, and before anyone on the field had realized what happened, the scared-to-death Marcol crossed the goal line to score the winning touchdown for the Packers.
- Bears 61, Packers 7 (December 7, 1980) - After the Packers had suffered the second most lopsided defeat in their history, Bart Starr charged across the field to confront Bears coach Neill Armstrong. Starr was upset because defensive coordinator Buddy Ryan had the Bears blitzing from all angles in the fourth quarter. "Bart Starr was upset," Armstrong said after the game. "He did the talking and I did the listening. He said he'd rather not hear what I had to say, something to that effect, and he left." Two years later, Bill Tobin, the Bears' vice president of player personnel at the time, revealed that he had been instructed by general manager Jim Finks during the off-season to study film and decode the Packers' signal system for relaying plays to the quarterback. Tobin, who had been in the Packers' front office during the Devine years, had been fired by Starr in 1975 as part of a wholesale housecleaning. "I went at it like a tiger does good meat," Tobin said at the time. "We wanted 100 points," defensive end Dan Hampton said. "It couldn't happen to a nicer bunch of (expletive)."
- Bears 23, Packers 7 (October 21, 1985) – The world was introduced to William "The Refrigerator" Perry on Monday Night football. In goal line situations, Bears head coach Mike Ditka used rookie defensive lineman William Perry, who weighed roughly 350 lbs. in the fullback position. Twice, Perry led the way for Bears legend Walter Payton on two and one yard touchdown runs. In the second quarter, "the Fridge" was given the ball and plunged into the end zone for one of the heaviest touchdowns in NFL history. The Bears won 23-7, and "The Fridge" was born.
- Bears 16, Packers 10 (November 10, 1985) – Two weeks after the Monday Night Game, tempers reached a boiling point in the rivalry. Packers cornerback Mark Lee was ejected after he and Bears running back Walter Payton went flying over a bench in the first quarter. A few minutes later, Packers safety Ken Stills was flagged for leveling Matt Suhey, Payton's backfield mate, well after the whistle.
- Bears 12, Packers 10 (November 23, 1986) – In Week 12 of the 1986 season Green Bay defensive tackle Charles Martin wore a towel with a hit list of specific Bears numbers written on it, such as #34, Walter Payton, #9 Jim McMahon, and others. Following a McMahon interception Martin came up from behind and body slammed him to the turf, separating McMahon's shoulder, ending the quarterback's season. Martin would be suspended for two games, at the time the longest suspension in NFL history.[citation needed]
- Packers 14, Bears 13 (November 5, 1989) – This would become known as the Instant Replay Game[2]. Packers quarterback Don Majkowski led the Packers to a comeback with an apparent game-winning touchdown pass to wide receiver Sterling Sharpe. Initially the play was called a touchdown, but line judge Jim Quirk had called a penalty on Majkowski for being beyond the line of scrimmage when he threw the pass. A nervous and tense crowd at Lambeau Field waited as the call went up to the instant replay official. Several minutes later, the call came down and the touchdown was awarded as recorded by instant replay, providing the Packers their first victory over the Bears since 1984. This led to a change in the "illegal forward pass" rule which defined when to consider a passer past the line of scrimmage. The rule formerly was judged by the position of the ball instead of the passer's feet. Bears coach Mike Ditka ordered that an asterisk be placed next to the result in all team publications.
- Packers 35, Bears 28 (November 12, 1995) Coming into this much-anticipated matchup, first place in the NFC Central division was on the line. A victory would give the Packers the same record as the Bears (6–4) and would mean a series sweep, giving Green Bay the head-to-head tie-breaker should the teams be tied at season's end. Brett Favre had a badly sprained ankle, which kept his status for the game uncertain. He had not been able to practice all week until the Friday prior to the game. Not only did Favre start, but he had his best game of the season up to that point. He completed 25 of 33 passes for 336 yards and a career-high five touchdowns. Bears QB Erik Kramer also had a solid game, going 23 of 38 for 318 yards, two touchdowns, and one interception. The teams combined for 800 yards of offense. The game wasn't decided until LeRoy Butler intercepted Kramer in the end zone on fourth-down-and-two with less than two minutes left to play.[3]
- Packers 24, Bears 23 (October 12, 1997) In one of the more back-and-forth contests in the rivalry, the Bears got off to a 10–0 lead thanks in part to a rushing touchdown by Raymont Harris in the first quarter before the Packers came back to take a 14–10 halftime lead due to a rushing score by Dorsey Levens. In the third quarter, Erik Kramer ran for a three-yard touchdown to put the Bears back in front, 17–14. However, in the waning seconds of the third quarter, Brett Favre connected with Mark Chmura for a touchdown. The Packers led, 21–17, then extended their lead to 24–17. The Bears marched down the field and scored when Kramer connected with Chris Penn with less than two minutes left. In an "all-or-nothing" maneuver, the Bears went for a two-point conversion. The pass fell incomplete, essentially preserving the win for the Packers.[4]
- Bears 14, Packers 13 (November 7, 1999) – In their first game since the passing of running back Walter Payton, the Bears defeated the Packers for the first time since 1993 on a blocked field goal by defensive tackle Bryan Robinson.
- Packers 34, Bears 21 (October 7, 2002) - This Monday night contest at Memorial Stadium (Champaign) in Champaign, Illinois, was the only Bears home game in the entire series that was played outside of Chicago. Brett Favre threw an 85-yard TD pass to Donald Driver in the first quarter -- the second longest of his career to that point. At the time, Soldier Field was undergoing a major renovation.
- Bears 26, Packers 0 (September 10, 2006) – In the opening week of the season, the Bears handed Brett Favre his first shutout in his 16-year career, winning 26–0 in Green Bay. The Bears' offense, criticized for being conservative, opened the game with a 49-yard touchdown pass from Rex Grossman to Bernard Berrian. This also marked the first game in which the Bears' Devin Hester returned a punt for a touchdown.
- Bears 20, Packers 17 (December 22, 2008) – In the coldest game in recorded Bears history, with a temperature at kickoff of 2 degrees and -13 degrees with wind chill, the Packers traveled to Soldier Field, where a victory against the Bears would have ended their playoff hopes. The Bears had to rally from a 14–3 score at the half. The Bears were able to score after a turnover on a Packers punt return. The Packers were on the verge of finishing a game-winning drive when Mason Crosby's field goal attempt was blocked by Alex Brown, pushing the game to overtime. The Bears took the first possession in overtime and won the game on a 38-yard field goal by Robbie Gould.
- Packers 10, Bears 3 (January 2, 2011) - With the playoffs looming, the Packers needed a win to survive and clinch a playoff berth. The visiting Bears had already clinched the #2 playoff seed and had nothing to play for, but chose not to rest their starters. The score was 3-0 in the Bears' favor until the Packers tied it in the third quarter. The Packers took the lead in the fourth quarter by scoring on a one-yard completion by quarterback Aaron Rodgers. Later in the quarter, with the Bears pinned near their own two-yard line, QB Jay Cutler drove the ball down the field only to be picked off by Packers safety Nick Collins, ending the game and earning the Packers a place in the 2010-2011 playoffs as the #6 seed. The Packers would go on to defeat the Philadelphia Eagles and Atlanta Falcons in the first two rounds, while the Bears, coming off a first-round playoff bye, took down the Seattle Seahawks. The stage was set for Chicago and Green Bay to meet once again, this time for the NFC Championship.
- Result TBD (January 23, 2011 2011 NFC Championship Game). This is the first time the two teams have met in the playoffs since 1941.
Playoffs
The Bears and Packers have made it to the playoffs in the same year only 4 times.
- 1941 The Bears would go on to win the championship early on in the rivalry. This is also the only playoff game the two teams have played against each other until January 23, 2011, when both teams will play each other to advance to Super Bowl XLV.
- 1994 Both teams won first round games only to be knocked out in the second round games, seeing the 49ers go on to win the Super Bowl.
- 2001 The Bears had a first round bye but the Packers were the only one of the two teams to win a playoff game this year. The Packers had also given the Bears 2 of their 3 regular season losses that season. The Bears were knocked out at home by the Eagles while the Packers lost to the eventual Super Bowl runner-up Rams.
- 2010 The two teams met on the last day of the season in what was a must win for Green Bay. The Packers won to capture the last wild card spot, while the Bears had already secured a first-round bye. Green Bay clinched a trip to the NFC Championship by virtue of a 21-16 win over Philadelphia in the Wild Card round and then defeating Atlanta, 48-21, in a divisional playoff. The Bears defeated Seattle in the other divisional playoff, 35-24. Both teams advanced to the NFC Championship game, only their second playoff game against each other since 1941. This will be the biggest game in the history of the rivalry, with a trip to the Super Bowl on the line.
