The Bears–Packers rivalry is a National Football League (NFL) rivalry between the Chicago Bears and the Green Bay Packers. The two clubs have won a combined 22 NFL championships (13 for Green Bay and 9 for Chicago), including 5 Super Bowl championships (4 for Green Bay and 1 for Chicago) and have 65 members in the Pro Football Hall of Fame (Chicago with 34 and Green Bay with 31.)
The rivalry began in 1921 and is the league's most played, with 194 regular-season and post-season games. (The rivalry is not the league's longest continuous rivalry, as the 1982 strike-shortened NFL season did not include a Bears–Packers game. That title goes to the rivalry between the Lions and the Packers, who have played each other at least twice a year since 1932.) Because the Packers and Bears are in the same division—the NFC North—they play each other at least twice every regular season.
For the first time since September 24, 1933 and despite the Bears twice leading the series by as many as 24 games, in 1960 and again in 1992, the all-time series was tied at 94–94–6 on December 18, 2016 with a 30-27 Packers victory.
The Bears and Packers have made it to the playoffs in the same year only four times.
As of November 18, 2016, there have been 194 games between the two teams—most in NFL history—since their first league game in 1921, of which the both teams have won 94 games and there have been 6 ties. The largest margin of victory was a 61–7 Bears win on December 7, 1980. The longest winning streak is held by the Packers at 10 games from 1994–1998. After beating the Bears four times in 2011, the Packers became only the second team in NFL history to defeat the same opponent four times in one calendar year (the Los Angeles Raiders defeated the Denver Broncos four times in 1994).
