Chicago’s defensive front had control of the line of scrimmage virtually all game. The Bears held Packers running back Aaron Jones to just 39 yards on the ground. Akiem Hicks was a big part of that, and had a sack to go along with that. Fellow defensive lineman Roy Roberson-Harris was even more productive along the line, recording three tackles and a sack of his own. The stats didn’t show it, but Eddie Goldman’s ability to clog the middle made it easy for everyone around him.
