GREEN BAY, Wis. — The expectations are much higher for Packers quarterbacks than merely beating up the Bears with regularity. As they’ve gone from Brett Favre to Aaron Rodgers and now Jordan Love, dominating that rivalry is merely a byproduct of chasing something greater.
Love lit up the Bears in the season opener at Soldier Field, but that looked like a fluke as he quickly tapered off. Things seemed to click for him toward the middle of the season, however, and he has been one of the NFL’s best quarterbacks over the second half.
