Aaron Rodgers has praise for Bears QB Justin Fields after Week 13 win
Somehow, the Green Bay Packers found a way to win at Soldier Field on Sunday extending their win streak over the Chicago Bears to eight straight. And they did so with Aaron Rodgers not playing a great game.
Instead, Rodgers kept his team in it despite some missed throws and got the job done when it mattered the most for the Packers. But it almost slipped away, thanks to a performance by Bears QB Justin Fields.
Following the game, Rodgers offered up some praise for the young quarterback who finished the game 20 of 25 for 254 yards and 71 rushing yards including a 56-yard rushing touchdown. He did throw two interceptions but for the most part, he played well. And Rodgers took notice.
The quarterback told the media that the Bears have a bright future with Fields: “They’ve got a talented quarterback who’s got a chance to be around for a long time.”

We don’t know how long Rodgers will be in Green Bay or how many more rivalry games he has left in this series. But Chicago might be close to figuring out their quarterback situation which could spice things up in a historic rivalry.
