The Bears–Packers rivalry is a National Football League (NFL) rivalry between the Chicago Bears and Green Bay Packers. The rivalry began in the 1921 season when the Packers joined the American Professional Football Association (APFA).

Both franchises rank among the top five in NFL history in all-time win-loss records, and they also hold the record for the most total wins in league history. The Packers surpassed the Bears for the all-time wins lead during the 2022 season.
