Given the bitter, long-standing rivalry between Chicago and Green Bay, it's no surprise that emotions are running high in the wake of this game.

And Williams has done plenty to anger Packers fans even further, including putting on a cheese grater hat and grating actual cheese during his appearance on the NFL on Amazon Prime postgame show, which has gone viral on social media.
