Bears vs. Packers: The matchup
While the Bears handled their business with a 31-3 win over the Cleveland Browns on Sunday, the Packers took a hard loss to the Denver Broncos (34-26) that came with harder consequences. Pro Bowl edge rusher Micah Parsons is believed to have torn the ACL in his left knee in the game. Wideout Christian Watson also exited the game with an apparent chest or shoulder injury, but the early prognosis on that one is that Watson could play as early as Saturday, according to ESPN’s Rob Demovsky. The stout Pack defense likely still has to find a new source of pressure outside of Parsons, who is tied for third in the NFL with 12.5 sacks.
The Bears have now won six of their past seven games after rebounding on Sunday from a 28-21 road loss to Green Bay in Week 14. Still, Caleb Williams and company have a well-earned reputation for winning games close and late, and the 28-point margin of the Browns win is the team’s only double-digit victory over that seven-game stretch. Williams threw for 242 yards and connected with D.J. Moore on a pair of touchdown strikes, and D’Andre Swift rushed for 98 yards and two scores as the Bears cruised to their 10th win.
