When these two teams met up five weeks ago, the Green Bay Packers demoralized the Chicago Bears 41 to 25 in a game that wasn’t even that close. The score was 41-10 in the third quarter, so those 15 garbage time points by the Bears were just to save face.
That embarrassing loss came after the Bears bye week and it was their fifth loss in a row. The seats of general manager Ryan Pace and head coach Matt Nagy were never hotter, as losing to the rival Packers in that fashion brought ripples of discontent from Halas Hall.
