Chicago Bears tight end Colston Loveland was my player of the game. Colston Loveland had 8 receptions on 15 targets and 137 receiving yards. The Chicago Bears now have four players from their 2025 NFL Draft that won player of the game with Colston Loveland their 2025 first round pick out of Michigan winning player of the game this season, Luther Burden III their 2025 second round pick out of Missouri winning player of the game as a slot receiver to D.J. Moore and Rome Oduzne, Ozzy Trapilo their 2025 second round pick out of Boston College winning player of the game as a left tackle, and Kyle Monangai their 2025 seventh round pick out of Rutgers at running back.

Chicago is the third NFL team with four different rookies from the 2025 NFL Draft to win player of the game. The Chicago Bears join the Houston Texans and the New England Patriots as the only other two NFL teams with four rookies to win player of the game this season. Houston had Jayden Higgins as their secondary wide receiver drafted in the second round of Iowa State, Aireontae Ersery a left tackle drafted out of Minnesota in the second round, Jaylin Noel a wide receiver out of Iowa State that won the slot receiver job, and Jo'quavious "Woody" Marks a fourth round pick out of USC win player of the game as rookies. New England had Will Campbell a left tackle out of LSU their 2025 first round pick who made the cover of our wild card predictions article, TreVeyon Henderson, their 2025 second round pick out of Ohio State, Jared Wilson their 2025 third round pick out of Georgia at left guard who played center in college, and Andres Borregales their rookie kicker out of Miami FL as the four players that won player of the game for New England.

New England and Houston both have an opportunity to have a fifth rookie win player of the game if they win on Sunday and Monday Night. Craig Woodson New England's 2025 fourth round pick is a starter and has not won player of the game. Neither has New England's first 2025 third round pick in Kyle Williams. I think Jaylin Smith and Jaylen Reed, Houston's two remaining draft picks from the 2025 NFL Draft both are on injured reserve.

This was Green Bay's best opportunity to win a Super Bowl with this core. They could make a Super Bowl in a few years when Super Bowl 62 comes to Atlanta, but I don't believe they will win that game.

As for the Chicago Bears, they are moving on to the divisional round of this years NFL Playoffs after an amazing comeback against the Green Bay Packers after trailing 21-6 after three quarters of play. The Chicago Bears will most likely host the Philadelphia Eagles if the Eagles defeat the San Francisco 49ers.
