Bears miss last-second field goal, fall to Packers once again

The Packers continue to rule the Bears

Matt LaFleur and the Green Bay Packers do own the Chicago Bears.

Green Bay’s coach still has not lost to his NFC North opponent.

It was a close call on Sunday when Cairo Santos missed a field goal from 46 yards on the last play of the game and the Packers edged the Bears, 20-19. The kick was deflected by Green Bay’s Karl Brooks.

The Packers had gone ahead on a one-yard run by Jordan Love with 2:59 left. A two-point conversion failed setting the Bears up for a chance to drive for a game-winning field goal.

Green Bay has beaten the Bears 11 straight times.

Will the Packers have Jordan Love against the Lions?

Jordan Love update

On Sunday, the Green Bay Packers host the Detroit Lions in a huge NFC North game.

The concern for the Packers was the availability of quarterback Jordan Love. The news seems to be trending in the right direction.

Why might Jordan Love be out?

The concern over Love is because he suffered a groin injury last week in the win over the Jacksonville Jaguars. This would be the second time Love has been shelved by an injury in 2024.

Fired Jets coach Robert Saleh works at Packers practice

Where was Robert Saleh working on Wednesday?

Fired coaches tend not to stay unemployed for long in most sports. The latest example is ex-New York Jets coach Robert Saleh.

Saleh turned up Wednesday on the field at Green Bay Packers practice, working with the offense.

Have to love the coincidence of Saleh, a longtime friend and associate of Packers coach Matt LaFleur, being with Green Bay, the former home of current Jets QB Aaron Rodgers.

“It’s a good opportunity for him and also to give us perspective on how teams might see us, how they might defend us,” LaFleur said of what seems like a part-time role.

The Packers play the Miami Dolphins on Thanksgiving, unfortunately, another AFC East team, the Jets is not on their schedule.

He signed with Green Bay on Wednesday.

Romeo Doubs returns from suspension with two touchdown receptions

Jordan Love and Romeo Doubs were on the same page, big time

Romeo Doubs found a quick way to get out of the Green Bay Packers doghouse after missing a game for a suspension.

Doubs returned Sunday against the Arizona Cardinals after sitting out a game via a team ban for acting out, skipping practice and missing meetings.

He came back with a flourish, catching a pair of Jordan Love’s four touchdown passes and the game was late in the third quarter.

The second score was good for 20 yards and gave Green Bay a 31-13 lead after Arizona had scored 13 straight points.

The four passing TDs to that point equaled Love’s career high for an entire game.

You can’t keep a good quarterback down.

After throwing a foolish pick-six in the first half, Jordan Love of the Green Bay Packers rebounded in the third quarter.

The Packers recovered a Kyren Williams fumble and Love took advantage quickly.

He found Tucker Kraft, who used a strong stiff arm en route to the 66-yard touchdown.

It was the longest TD pass for the Packers to a tight end since Aaron Rodgers hit Tom Crabtree for 72 yards in 2012.

Colossal gaffe by Jordan Love becomes pick-six for Rams

Jordan Love threw the first pick-six of his career and it was foolish

Jordan Love was trying to avoid a safety in the second quarter of the Green Bay Packers’ game with the Los Angeles Rams at SoFi Stadium.

Rather than giving up two points, Love attempted an ill-advised pass. And it wound up in the arms of Jaylen McCullough.

The 4-yard interception return gave the Rams a 13-7 lead after the PAT failed.

Jaire Alexander turns interception of Will Levis into pick-six

Jaire Alexander with the pick-six for the Packers

Another week, another bad decision by Tennessee Titans quarterback Will Levis.

This time he threw an ill-advised pass that was easily picked off by Jaire Alexander of the Green Bay Packers on Sunday. The defensive back high-stepped his way into the end zone from 35 yards for a score that gave the Packers a 17-7 lead in the first quarter.

Not saying the Titans regret dealing Malik Willis to Green Bay but Levis is starting to look more questionable than the answer at quarterback for Tennessee.

Malik Willis gives Packers lead against former team, the Titans

Malik Willis and the Packers strike first at Tennessee

Call it a Malik Willis revenge game, and it was off to a great start on Sunday in Tennessee.

The Green Bay Packers quarterback, starting for the injured Jordan Love, found Christian Watson with a long pass and finished the final five yards by himself to give the NFC North team an early lead over the Tennessee Titans.

Willis was drafted in the third round by Tennessee in 2022, played two seasons with the Titans before being traded to Green Bay in August.
