No Jay Cutler. No Lance Briggs. No Jermichael Finley. No Clay Matthews. Not like it matters for the Green Bay Packers. They have beaten the Chicago Bears with both Cutler and Briggs on the field. Maybe without them, the Bears can finally overtake their division rival. The Bears are trying to avoid dropping to .500 and slipping out of the division race. The Packers, on the other hand,got off to a very slow start, but are currently on a four game winning streak.
The Bears defense has had a lot of injuries and going into Lambeau Field to face Aaron Rodgers is not going to help. Rodgers is having yet another dominant season throwing for fifteen touchdowns to four interceptions. Backup quarterback Josh McCown will be the opposing quarterback who played two games for the Bears in 2011, one of which was against the Green Bay Packers. In that game, the Beas lost and he threw two interceptions.
The Bears will have a big challenge tonight especially without their star players. The Bears defense has looked terrible this year since losing DT Nate Collins. They have lost their pass rush and ability to stop the run. The Packers defense, similarly, have not been too good, especially losing Clay Matthews, but they have been able to hold off opposing offenses. Aaron Rodgers has lost almost all of his receivers, but has still found a way to win. This does not look good for Chicago who will likely fall to .500 tonight. Luckily, they will still be ahead of the Vikings, but the Packers will move to 6-2. The Bears will have to try to not fall to far back as they wait for Cutler and Briggs to come back this year. Packers vs. Bears- who you takin?
