Packers vs Bears Key Stats
In Week 12, the Green Bay Packers (4-8) lost to the Philadelphia Eagles 40-33. They failed to cover a 6.5-point spread, and Aaron Rodgers, who was already dealing with a broken thumb, was forced to leave the game in the third quarter after suffering a rib injury.
Over its last eight games, Green Bay has only managed a 1-7 SU record and a 2-6 ATS mark. Injured and unable to stop anything on the ground, Green Bay's defense is suffering. In the NFL, Green Bay is currently ranked 29th in yards allowed per carry, which is five yards, and 154.8 rushing yards allowed per game, which ranks them 31st.
The Week 12 loss to the New York Jets, 31-10, has the Chicago Bears (3-9) on a five-game losing streak. Due to Justin Fields' absence due to a shoulder injury, Trevor Siemian was selected to start at center, and Chicago had no chance against the motivated Jets.
Chicago is in dire need of Justin Fields' return. While Siemian did not participate in practice on Wednesday, his availability for Week 13 is still uncertain. Chicago would be in serious trouble if Nathan Peterman was forced to play against Green Bay. Safety Another major setback for Chicago is the loss of Eddie Jackson, who sustained a foot injury last Sunday and will likely miss the remainder of the year.
Packers vs Bears Betting Prediction
Even if Jordan Love is forced to play for Aaron Rodgers and Justin Fields returns from a shoulder injury, Green Bay should win this game easily. Both teams are dealing with a lot of injuries, but Green Bay has more depth than Chicago, whose defense has been terrible lately.
Chicago has given up 31 points or more in four of its last five games, so Eddie Jackson's injury will be quite detrimental to the home club. Tonight, Green Bay is the clear favorite to cover the spread.
Pick: Green Bay -4.5 (-110)
