A century-old rivalry is set to be reignited on Sunday between the Chicago Bears and Green Bay Packers. Soldier Field will host Green Bay on Sunday. The teams will meet for the 209th time. It is Green Bay who leads the series 107-95-6 all-time.
While Green Bay is currently on a 10-game winning streak over Chicago, Sunday’s matchup just got a little bit spicier.
“Is He Wrong?” Packers Fans Savagely Back Player’s Trash Talk
Chicago Bears receiver DJ Moore was asked about Xavier McKinney being signed by the Green Bay Packers and a couple cornerbacks being drafted by the Detroit Lions on May 7.
Moore told Kay Adams, “That’s nice.”
Moore, who is having one of the quieter years of a superb career, probably knows who No. 29 is entering Sunday’s rivalry game at Soldier Field.
“I hope so. But I don’t give a damn about what he knows,” McKinney said.
McKinney went on to talk about not what he knows but what he’s seen. Two weeks ago in Chicago’s loss at the Arizona Cardinals, Moore walked off the field in the middle of the play while his quarterback, Caleb Williams, was running for his life trying to make a play.
“This dude walked out on” his quarterback, McKinney said of Moore, pointing out he is a Bears captain. “I’ve been playing football for five years now and I’ve been watching football for longer than that, and I don’t think I’ve ever seen [anything like it].
“You’re supposed to be the guy and you’re just walking off the field. You’re walking off the field on a rookie quarterback that you’ve been praising. So, it’s like, that’s a whole other story.”
Everyone should have their popcorn ready for Solider Field on Sunday. This rivalry has added another chapter to the pre-game smack talk. Will Green Bay win their 11th in a row? Or will Chicago shock the NFL world and pull off the upset?
Fans didn’t think McKinney’s comments were far off:
Is he wrong?
