NFC North tilt as the division-leading Packers head to the Windy City for a meeting with the 3-2 Bears. Can Aaron Rodgers and Green Bay extend their lead atop the division or will Justin Fields lead his Bears to a win and knock Green Bay off top spot?
Chicago’s offense looks a lot better since they’ve allowed OC Bill Lazor to call the plays. Justin Fields is still a raw prospect at QB but his potential is undeniable and his ability on the ground gives the Bears offense something it sorely lacked with Andy Dalton under center. The absence of both David Montgomery and Damien Williams will give another for Khalil Herbert to impress. The rookie did well last week and will have to be on his A-game here to help Justin Fields keep the offense on track.
Mason Crosby was almost a cut candidate before eventually kicking the game-winner in OT against the Bengals last week. Crosby had missed 3 FG attempts before his eventual game-winner and the Packers were fortunate to escape with a win against the Bengals in Week 5. Green Bay has managed to reel off 4 wins on the trot after their dismal Week 1 showing with Aaron Rodgers and Davante Adams linking up plenty to keep the offense on track.
