In Week 18 of the 2023–2024 regular season, two of the NFL's oldest teams — the Chicago Bears and the Green Bay Packers — will square off.
This is a game the Packers, who are still in the hunt for a postseason spot, must win. They were in a comparable situation heading into Week 18 of the previous season but lost to the Detroit Lions and were eliminated from the postseason picture. This time, they will hope for a different result.
The Packers should be confident in their ability to achieve the desired outcome going into this Week 18 matchup, given their record against the Bears. The Bears have not won at Lambeau Field in eight years and have dropped nine straight games against the Packers.
