*Packers are missing their top 3 CB's in this game Shields/Randall/Rollins. Not much depth behind those guys and i'd expect Alshon Jeffrey to go off against them. Bears will be airing it out in this game and i'd expect them to hit some big plays. As long as they hold the Packers pass rush I won't be surprised to see them drop 24+ in this game. Hoyer is not as bad as people think he is.
*The public may overreact to Rodgers performance last week on national television against the Cowboys. Make no mistake the Bears secondary is not the same as the Cowboys. Packers WR's will get more separation and the Packers O-line is one of the best in the league and will give Rodgers time to hit his WR's and build up his confidence. On a side note i'm not particularly scared of the Bears pass rush either. Rodgers will be looking for a bounce back to shake off that bad performance and he'll get his opportunity tonight. I expect a rebound performance tonight.

I think for it to be Over, Aaron Rodgers will have to throw 300+ yards 3+ TD's and this new RB will have to run wild. That's a lot to ask for. The Chicago Bears don't impress me at all because they don't put up massive points.
Week 1- put up 14 pts
Week 2- put up 14 pts
Week 3- put up 17 pts
Week 4- Won a Lions team with 17 pts
Week 5- Put up most pts with 23
Week 6- Put up 16 pts
I'd expect the Bears to only get 10 pts at most if Packers defense wants to become stingy. Or they will score the most pts all year if the Packers decides to let off the gas like they did against the Lions.
Expect both team to air it out, but this game will come down to turn overs.
With the running game, no one has the edge here because RB Davis just learned the system in 1-2 days from his trade this week. Packers got the better O-line compared to the Bears.
I'd go with the safest play, buy picking the Packers winning straight up. Packers defense should be able to get the job done alone.

BUT.. Rodgers has a passer rating of 104.3 in 17 games against the Bears and has had a passer rating of more than 100.0 in six of the last 10 matchups. If the Bears get blown out with under 10 pts... you'll have to pray that the Packers put up 40+ pts at home to get on the over. Or the Packers let off the brakes like they did on the Lions and let the divisional team put up points. If they do that, expect Chicago to cover and goes over 46. Meaning they have to put up 20+ pts against Packers defense.
Green Bay ranks second in the NFL in allowing only 72.4 yards per game this season and they should expect that trend in stopping the run game.
