Everyone, brace yourselves: it’s Packers week. That notion would normally just induce some anxiety as the fans anticipate a crucial game against a rival, but the current state of the Bears has turned that anxiety into pure dread.
Chicago has been hampered by their own dysfunction in recent weeks, with tension rising between the players and coaches as they continue to lose on a routine basis. To put it simply, the Bears just aren’t prepared to take on the better equipped Packers, but the NFL season mercilessly moves forward. Green Bay is coming to town, and Chicago will have to dig deep to reorient themselves and do their best to defend their home turf.
