I’m sorry man, I hate to be that guy, but I’ve been let down too many times in this exact scenario.

I have to see it to believe it when it comes to us beating the Packers…does anyone else feel this way?

  1. I hear you. You’re not at all wrong to think that. And it’s not like we’re playing a crappy team. GB is good and being at home it’s appropriate we’re the underdogs. Now even we have them at home, however…

  3. It’s gonna be COLD next Sunday in GB, too. Could be a nice defense vs the run type of game for both teams.

  5. feel like the long break is never conducive to success. if we can split with the packers, i’ll be pleased.

  6. I saw the bears were 0-6 vs the eagles in their last 6 games.. and I thought to myself “Ben is going to change that..” and he sure did. Let’s have faith things have changed. It feels good.

  7. Yes. I feel more confident than ever. Caleb constantly stresses going “1-0” each week. This team is locked in and not losing site of the task at hand. On top of that they are coming off a win against the Pack the last time they faced them, and they can build on that confidence. All arrows pointing up for the Bears.

  8. They already did it last January without Ben Johnson.

    I’m starting to look at it like which team is going to stop this style of winning before the road to the Superbowl definitely is coming thru Soldier Field.

  9. Go in with no expectations. We weren’t supposed to be here yet. Just enjoy the ride and let the rest of the season play out.

  10. Not only do they win, but they force Green Bay to have a conversation about whether Matt and Love need to find new homes.

  11. Beating Green Bay at Lambeau is a much bigger test than Philly. Packers just beat the Lions and are feeling confident. Philly just shit the bed against Dallas and is probably in a downward spiral.

  12. Bears with Thomas Brown coaching beat them at Lambeau last season, why wouldn’t I believe that they could do it this year with a better team and staff.

  15. Absolutely. A couple of weeks ago I was doubtful, but our o line is damn near peaking so things are going to remain interesting.

  16. I can’t predict the future. I just know the tides are turning.

    An Eberflus led team lost on a blocked FG and a Thomas Brown led team beat the Pack. A game Jordan Love played in. Yes, he wasn’t 100% and eventually left, but he didn’t look great while playing.

    They have Parsons. Great. We have one of the best O-lines in the NFL.

    If we want to be taken seriously, we have to show the division we’re here to stay. That begins next week

  17. I feel U. Im sure green bay fans feel a similar way but no chance they can admit it. They know we are different now

  18. Stay humble, we match up well against them, they dont like getting punched in the mouth and Love will probably turn the ball over. Can we capitalize in the red zone? Can we get decent pressure on Love to force mistakes? Also Eagles defensive front is best in the league maybe, do you think our line will struggle with them? Scales tipped in our favor I think. Also, they won by a blocked field goal and lost by a field goal to us last year 🤷

  19. My gut was so wrong about Philly that I don’t trust it.

    But it does say, we lose at Lambeau. We win at home.

  20. Kinda, yeah. We sucked last year and did. Should have swept them if not for a fluke blocked kicked.

  21. In my gut, I absolutely believe we CAN yes. The Packers are a good team, but so are we now. The bad man is gone, there is nothing to fear. They’re just a good opponent now.

  22. If we can beat the Eagles in Philly, we have what it takes to beat the Packers in Green Bay. Weather we do or not boils down to preparation.

    Weather looks like it will be good, so that wont play a factor. I imagine its going to be a lot of man and stacked boxes to force Chicago to throw the ball and allow Parsons to work.

  23. I have some trepidation. 

    It’s gonna be a stressful watch. 

    And also, I believe they are fully capable of winning. 

    I just need to see it before I can unclench. 

  26. I’ll seriously sacrifice that game against the browns to sweep the packers. Who’s with me 😅

  29. My gut tells me this team can play 60 minutes with anybody, any week. GB has had its lapses.

    Other than Parsons, who on the Packers would you take over a current Bears player?

  31. The Packers still have our number and no game in Lambeau will be easy like so many fans think. Jordan Love is a top 10 QB which may be hard for some fans to swallow. Also they have Micah Parsons on defense and he’s a game wrecker. The Packers front office all the way down to their coaching staff is one of the best in the league

    That being said we have Caleb Williams and Ben Johnson… and this is by far our best team in the last decade. FTP

  32. You know damn well BJ’s going to run it down Micah Parsons’ ass, especially with Wyatt out. Should be a fun one.

  33. Absolutely they did last year when everything was a little unstable as team. This team is hands down much better on both sides of the ball, and coached at a top level. Not to mention Ben ‘s track record against the packers as a play caller. Bears 🐻

  34. I think it will be a good football game.

    The Packers are super legit. If they were fully healthy, they’d probably be the best team in the NFC and clear favorites to go to the Super Bowl. But they’re not fully healthy, they’re pretty banged up, missing a ton of pieces on offense and a few useful ones on defense.

    The main thing that I don’t like about this matchup is that the best player on the field will always be a Packer, either Micah Parsons or Jordan Love.

    Don’t listen to the people memeing or just talking rivalry shit, Jordan Love is a *really* good QB. Easily the best we’ve faced yet this year. He’s the reverse of Caleb Williams: He is probably too aggressive with his decision-making, but he backs it up with elite ball placement. He’s extremely hard to intercept and pretty hard to sack.

    That’s the bad news. The good news is that he’s singlehandedly keeping their offense afloat. The rest of their offense is a bunch of JAGs, nobody to be afraid of.

    Defensively, they’re probably tied with the Eagles for the best defense we’ve faced this year. They might be getting Quay Walker back, but they just lost their best DT, Devonte Wyatt, for the year.

    I know we’re all high on what we did to the Eagles defense, but a big part of that was that the Eagles offense couldn’t stay on the field so we took advantage of an exhausted defense in the fourth quarter.

    Micah Parsons is an absolute beast. His closing speed when he gets through the offensive line is unbelievable and could possibly negate Williams’ escapability. I do not recommend Williams try to run away from him like he’s done with other great pass rushers.

    We might be able to run on them, but only two teams have run for over 120 yards against them all season, it won’t be easy.

    Our best path to victory is shutting down their offense by covering their receivers so well that Jordan Love can’t overcome it. That’s probably doable.

  37. My gut said we’d beat Philly. My gut is saying we don’t come out of Lambeau with a win. FTP to death, but it’s going to be difficult. We are going to have to be clean in the passing game. Caleb is going to have to have his best game of the year.

  38. I feel like schematically, after watching how we managed against the Eagles, we can dominate up front. I think defensively, we will have a tougher time with Jacobs running but I think we match up well against them. I think we will out-coach them and on special teams, we will make a few game changing plays.

  39. We’ve already went to Green Bay and beat them once this year. No reason we can’t do it again.

  40. i think it’s very possible. we just made a good fangio defense look pedestrian against our run game. we can do the same against GB. their DC isn’t vic and thy might have Micah but im not hella scared of the rest of them. as long as there is a good game plan, they can do this.

  42. I’m not going to believe the Packers can beat Caleb at Lambeau until they prove it to me

  43. For over 40 years I’ve toiled. Nearly always with disappointment. Watched my brother convert to a Bengals fine through marriage. Kept my head up through the cycles of coaches and quarterbacks.

    We could win the next 4 superbowls in a row and I’d still go into each new game assuming we’re the underdogs.

  44. Bears have the far superior run game. Our secondary is getting healthy. Love is massively overrated. Our coaching is better. And Caleb has the clutch gene. Bears winning 34-19

  46. Any Given Sunday, we just have to roll in there with the vibes of beating them last year. Combined with just beating the reigning champs from last year! Have no doubts but we do need to contain Parsons tempo.

  47. Yeah we beat them last year with a decimated coaching staff and shit o-line. Should have been twice too. We should win.

  48. Hell yeah we can. Packers are doodoo

    They’ve played practically the same teams as us so far this season and done worse against all of them*.

    *Inter division doesn’t count because it doesn’t align with my opinion.

  49. I 100% do.

    And this isn’t some meathead kool-aid take, I had us winning 7 games, tops when the schedule was released. This ain’t old GB, and this ain’t old Bears. FTP

  50. In that introductory press conference BJ and for the Bears, he mentioned Dan Campbell and KOC as respectable, high end coaches. Then only brought up LaFleur’s name when he said “Man, I love beating Mike LaFleur twice a year.”

    Something tells me there is some story between them that we don’t know about, and potentially like a big brother/little brother relationship where the big brother picks on the little brother to get the same reaction every time, knows exactly how to push those buttons.

    Regardless, Ben Johnson is a psycho and I love it
