Chicago Bears

Packers

Week 13 sees the NFL’s oldest rivalry play out once more for its 205th meeting. These two have been battling it out since 1921, with both sets of fans likely seeing it as their most important NFL matchup. Who will win this one and go into the off-season with bragging rights?

Starting out with the Bears, there’s something about QB Justin Fields that they should be supporting to get the most out of him. He’s proactive playing, strong arm… just needs the support. But that’s not their strong point, since they clearly showed in the off-season they didn’t surround Fields with the talent needed to showcase his skills. Plus, they lost Allen Robinson at receiver.

The Green Bay Packers , on the other hand, have spent the better part of the off-season for the past two years worrying about whether or not Aaron Rodgers will return for another season. Hopes should be high after they inked their MVP quarterback. There is still worry that the Packers’ Super Bowl odds are lower now than they were a year ago due to the loss of Davante Adams and the team’s inability to replace him in the draft or free agency.

Everyone in the NFL can see that Bears quarterback Justin Fields has the potential to be a game-changer. Last year, he impressed with his dynamic playmaking and strong arm, and he benefited from the backing of his teammates and coaches. Despite having an off-season to bolster Fields’ supporting cast, Chicago has done little thus far. They lost Allen Robinson at receiver and did not replace him with anyone of note.

The head-to-head is remarkably close for a rivalry that has lasted over a century, with Green Bay holding a slim 103-95 advantage and six draws through 2021. Chicago has only won twice in the last seventeen matchups, making recent history much more one-sided. It’s not just empty rhetoric when Rodgers says he “owns Chicago….”

Are you looking to bet on NFL games? If so, how should you go? There is only one direction for this one. Despite some losses on offense, Green Bay is a more talented bunch, and history tells us they should take care of the Bears comfortably. The NFL betting odds should reflect this in Week 13.
