Result:
LOSS

The Green Bay Packers lost their momentum last year when Aaron Rodgers went down with a broken collarbone. He is back, but Green Bay has really struggled this season. Their biggest problem is an offensive line that simply doesn't block well enough to allow Rodgers any time at all to throw. The ground game, which thrived last year, is going nowhere as well. Right now the Packers look like a very flawed team compared to expectations, and their only win was overcoming a 21-3 deficit at home as a better than TD favorite vs. the Jets. Chicago has revenge motive for the finale last year that saw Rodgers complete a big pass to take Chicago out of the playoffs. Chicago had success running the ball vs. Green Bay last year as two of the five times Matt Forte ran for 100+ yards was vs. Green Bay. The Packers have yet another issue from an already challenged defense, and that is Clay Matthews' hamstring, which may keep him out or limit him for this one. The supposed to be explosive Packers' offense scored 7 points last week, and allowed 9. The eye test and three weeks of underachieving say Chicago in this one.
