Jordan Love passed for 367 yards and two touchdowns as the Green Bay Packers defeated the Chicago Bears 31–7 on Sunday, October 11, at Lambeau Field.

Love completed 25 of 31 attempts, and MarShawn Lloyd ran for two touchdowns. Green Bay forced five turnovers without committing one, improving to 3–2 while Chicago fell to 3–2, according to Field Level Media’s game report.

Christian Watson caught six passes for 143 yards and both of Love’s touchdown throws, from 42 and 53 yards. Matthew Golden added six catches for 123 yards as the Packers repeatedly created gains downfield. The passing production helped offset a rushing attack that finished with 70 yards, Acme Packing Company reported.

Xavier McKinney intercepted Tyson Bagent twice. Ty’Ron Hopper later picked off Case Keenum near the goal line, ending another Chicago scoring opportunity. The Bears also lost two fumbles.

Chicago played without starting quarterback Caleb Williams. Bagent was replaced by Keenum for the fourth quarter after an afternoon in which the Bears struggled to sustain their passing game. D’Andre Swift supplied their only touchdown near the end of a long second-quarter drive, Windy City Gridiron reported.

The Bears trailed 14–7 at halftime, but Green Bay scored all 17 second-half points. Injury updates remain relevant for both teams: Chicago linebacker T.J. Edwards left with a hamstring injury, while Packers defensive lineman Javon Hargrave was carted off late in the game.
