Being that I really despise the Loins and much of their fan base, it was not hard for me to root for da Bears, and as Joe said, it was made easier by the fact the Packers have beaten Chicago like a rug for several years now.

But I do agree with you that thinking Joe Barely is going to design schemes to stop the run first is asking an awful lot of him. It's weird. I do think the OLB's are going to play a big role in this one. I trust Preston Smith - he's a good player, consistent and good. But Rashan Gary's going to have to think about playing the run and containing the edge a little more than he usually does. You can't get after Danny DeVito's cousin unless you're stopping the run game, or unless your offense is putting up points left and right. And I don't think either of those will necessarily happen.

I dunno. Bright lights, big city. Feels like a trap to me.
