Aaron Rodgers didn't have a particulary spectacular performance on Sunday. He was 17/23 with 195 passing yards, two passing touchdowns and one rushing touchdown. The fact that the Bears defense held Rodgers to under 200 passing yards, which is a tough feat.

If Aaron Rodgers does in fact leave the Green Bay Packers after this season, this may have been his last visit to Soldier Field. And, with that touchdown celebration, Chicago Bears fans surely won't forget that. The reigning NFL MVP started the 2021 NFL season slow, which many speculated could happen after not appearing and preseason games. But Rodgers and the Green Bay Packers seem to have found a rhythm, keeping them atop the NFC North division rankings.
The Green Bay Packers are on a four-game winning streak after a Week 1 loss to the New Orleans Saints.
The Green Bay Packers will now play the Washington Football Team back at Lambeau Field next week. The Chicago Bears will travel to Raymond James Stadium to face Tom Brady and the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.
