In my opinion, the Packers biggest rivalry in recent years had been with the Vikings, not the Bears. That's all about to change. Big Time. This will be the Packer/Bear game that in the future we either won't want to talk about, or won't be able to stop talking about.
These teams are led by what I think are underrated coaches. It will be interesting to see how MM tries to attack the Bear defense. Does he try to continue to go with the short to medium range passes, which has worked so well lately? I think he has to try to use this stuff, plus play action to set up some longer shots. It's just not easy to put together long TD drives against the Bears.
The Bears will definitely want to run the ball, and force the Packers out of the nickel, where Woodson is so dangerous. Stop Forte and you stop the Bears offense.
