The opening week of Green Bay Packers quarterback Jordan Love’s first season as a starter just got a bit more challenging.
Green Bay had a 25-5 record against the Bears in Rodgers’ starts, and one of those losses came after an injury on the Packers’ opening series knocked him out of the game. Rodgers has thrown 64 touchdown passes with just 10 interceptions against them. The Bears have allowed more touchdown passes to Rodgers than any other player in NFL history.
“There’s not too much film on him, so we’ve just got to go out there and play our game,” Bears safety Eddie Jackson said of Love. “Feel like he wants to get off on a quick game, get some completions, get his confidence going early.” The Packers also don’t have much experience at tight end, where rookie second-round pick Luke Musgrave is expected to start. The two tight ends who played the most snaps for the Packers last season — Robert Tonyan and Marcedes Lewis — have both joined the Bears.
The Packers believe Love’s presence gives them a chance to keep winning in the post-Rodgers era, even with all their inexperience.
