Coach Boss (9-6)
After an embarrassing loss to the Eagles the Bears are playing against an Aaron Rodgers leg GB team. Jay Cutler is 1-8 against the Packers as a Bear. All the past history is crap. Jay Cutler and Co will rise to the occasion and beat the Green Bay Packers at Soldier Field and win the division in Marc Trestman’s first season as HC. All 3 phases contribute and Devin Hester breaks the all time return record against the team he started the record against.
Bears 35 – Packers 24
Trent Anderson (4-7)
Mr. Discount Doublecheck and Fat Eddie will destroy the debacle of a Bear D. I expect Green Bay to win this one and start a deep playoff run.
Bears 24 – Packers 34

GM Mouser (7-8)
Sunday’s game will test Trestman’s leadership. There is everything on the line and his team was not prepared for Philadelphia in what was the biggest game of the season. Earlier in the season, Trestman made the claim that all games, all opponents were equal. I thought that statement was very inaccurate and potentially inflammatory. Well Mark…is this game more important? Do tie-breakers matter? Can you beat the Pack when it matters? In Trestman I trust…Bears win this game as Rogers shakes the rust off and Cutler seeks redemption.
