It’s almost time for Jordan Love’s first opening week start. In a little over two weeks, he will walk out of the tunnel as the Green Bay Packers’ undisputed leader for the first time, doing so against the Chicago Bears in a game that will surely be referenced by fans of the winning team almost all season long in discussions with their rivals.
In Justin Fields, the Bears have their own young quarterback looking to develop, so that week one contest will be a measuring stick game for both players before the two teams meet again in week 18 to bookend the 2023 season.
