It hasn't been a great day for Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers.
After dealing with a Packers reporter ripping him for missing throws earlier in the day on Sunday, Rodgers saw his streak of passes without an interception broken against the Chicago Bears.

It has been a pretty trying season for Rodgers and the Packers overall.
Green Bay fired head coach Mike McCarthy earlier in the month, due to both the Packers' disappointing performance this season and friction between McCarthy and Rodgers in the locker room.
Entering play on Sunday, the Packers held a record of just 5-7-1 and seemed doomed to miss the playoffs for the second straight year, which would mark the first time that has occurred since 2006. Keep in mind that Rodgers missed most of the 2017 campaign due to a broken collarbone, resulting in the Pack finishing with a record of 7-9.
For Rodgers, it was just his second interception of the season, so it's not like he is having a terrible year. He has also thrown 23 touchdown passes.
However, with tensions in Green Bay running high, some are starting to turn on Rodgers, who does not look like the same quarterback who led the team to a Super Bowl back in the 2010-11 campaign, nor does he appear to be the same signal-caller who led the NFL with 40 touchdown passes just two years ago.
After finishing up with the Bears on Sunday, the Packers will head East to take on the New York Jets next weekend before concluding their season by hosting the Detroit Lions on Dec. 30.
