The Chicago Bears host the Green Bay Packers in the 198th matchup of the best rivalry in the NFL.  The Packers lead the series 97-94-6 after the Bears used to hold a commanding edge in the series.

The Bears still have a sour taste in their mouths after their Week 1 collapse against the Packers.  The Bears have gone on to a 9-4 record despite the loss to the Packers and could clinch the division and knock their rivals out of the postseason in one fell swoop.  (Bears win combined with a Vikings win or wins by PHI + WAS )

This sets up as a matchup of two franchises headed in opposite directions.  The Bears are a team on the rise with a young quarterback and a new head coach.  The Packers are limping through a disappointing season and will be looking for a new coach after they fired Mike McCarthy.
