NFL's oldest rivalry: Packers, Bears do battle on the gridiron for 190th time

GREEN BAY (WITI) -- The NFL's oldest rivalry marks its 190th meeting on Sunday, November 9th -- when the Green Bay Packers and Chicago Bears do battle at Lambeau Field in Green Bay. The Packers and Bears are both coming off a bye week.

The Packers have won ten of the last 12 meetings between the two teams (including playoffs). But overall, the Bears hold a 93-90-6 edge over the green and gold.

Sunday night's game kicks off at 7:30 p.m. It is the ninth consecutive year the Packers and Bears will play in primetime. It's also the second year in a row that Chicago will play at Green Bay in early November after visiting Lambeau Field on Nov. 4 last season. Dating back to 1970, the Packers’ 18 primetime games against the Bears are the most they have played against any team.

Under Head Coach Mike McCarthy, the Packers are 12-6 against the Bears during the regular and postseason, including 5-3 at home. In all but one of the 12 wins under McCarthy, Green Bay has scored at least 20 points.



Two of the Packers’ next three games will be against NFC North foes, with Green Bay traveling to play Minnesota in Week 12. The Packers’ final divisional game of the season will be played at home against Detroit in Week 17.
