Green Bay: The Packers had a rough day against the Bears. They lost not just the game but also two key players to injuries. It was a real nail-biter at Lambeau Field.
Chicago managed to pull off a last-minute win with a field goal, ending their season on a high note after a tough year. The Bears snapped a 10-game losing streak, finishing 5-12.
As for the Packers, they were already in the playoffs but were hoping to improve their seeding. Unfortunately, they lost quarterback Jordan Love and wide receiver Christian Watson in the first half.
Love hurt his elbow and had to sit out, while Watson suffered a non-contact knee injury. Both injuries put a damper on the game for Green Bay.
Even though Love could have returned, the team decided to play it safe. He mentioned losing feeling in his throwing hand, which is never a good sign.
Watson’s situation looks a bit more serious. Coach LaFleur wasn’t too optimistic about his recovery. The Packers will need to regroup quickly as they prepare for the Eagles next week.
It’s a tough break for the team, especially with the playoffs around the corner. Fans are hoping for some good news on the injury front soon.
