The Green Bay Packers silenced the Chicago Bears' trash talk with a dominant 31-7 victory at Lambeau Field. After Bears receiver Luther Burden III claimed his team wanted to "make them quit," veteran linebacker Zaire Franklin fired back post-game, stating, "He quit today, by the way. He ain't wanna play anymore." Burden, who caught six passes for 47 yards, did not speak to reporters.
The win pulled the Packers (3-2) even with the Bears in the NFC North, though both trail the undefeated Vikings. Coach Matt La Fleur's aggressive play-calling, featuring deep shots to Christian Watson (143 yards, 2 TDs) and Matthew Golden (123 yards), set the tone. Jordan Love tied a record with five 30-plus air-yard completions.
Despite the chippy nature of the game, including an incident where Cairo Santos attempted to trip Golden, the Packers secured their 11th straight win under La Fleur against Chicago.
