Here’s 4 good reasons to watch the Chicago Bears Sunday night
By Ryan Heckman
Sunday night, the Chicago Bears take on the Green Bay Packers for the second time this season.
This matchup may be the most personal matchup we have seen between these two teams in recent memory. After Aaron Rodgers yelled his infamous line “I still own you” at the tail end of the last meeting, this game has become all that more important.
Unfortunately for Bears fans, this team is borderline unwatchable at this stage in the season. With many feeling the Bears will eventually hire a new general manager and Matt Nagy’s seat getting hotter, fans are now looking ahead to the offseason.
However, there are still a few good reasons we should watch on Sunday night.
1. Chicago Bears fans may witness the last matchup with Aaron Rodgers in a Packers uniform
For years now, Bears fans have had to deal with Aaron Rodgers. Sunday night, though, might be the very last time we see Rodgers face the Bears in a Packers uniform.
If Bears fans have their way, and Rodgers has his, the veteran quarterback will find himself in another uniform next season. Over this past offseason, reports and rumors swirled about Rodgers wanting out of Green Bay. After everything was said and done, the Packers agreed that they would look for a trade partner after the 2021 season if Rodgers still wanted to be dealt.
It likely doesn’t matter how this season unfold. Rodgers is as good as gone. Therefore, this could be the Bears’ last chance to compete against him in a Packers uniform.
You have to believe the Bears’ defensive guys know this and will be coming after Rodgers with a clear mission. If anything else, fans will want to watch as the end of an era unfolds.
