Packers-Bears

Tonight one of the oldest rivalriesin football is renewed. The Green Bay Packers take on the Chicago Bears in aclassic showdown at historic Lambeau field. With the Packers coming off of atough loss they will be fired up and ready to begin their attack on the Bears. However,the Bears have a very tough defense that the Pack will with have to surpassfirst.

Being a Thursday night game, itbrings a new audience; it is the only game on Thursday so many more people arewatching the game tonight than the normal amount that would watch this game onany given Sunday. This always brings a little more hype and excitement to thegame. The Packers haven’t lost to the Bears in two years, so it will beinteresting to see who pulls ahead tonight.

I believe in order for Green Bay tobeat the Bears a few things need to improve. First quarterback Aaron Rodgersneeds to have a better day passing. I say four hundred yards passing and fourtouchdowns will give the Pack the win. However they can’t rely solely on Rodgers.With a weak defense in the past, the Pack needs to change that tonight and showthat they can hold a team to minimal yards as well as do it without getting penalized.Along with that, the Packer’s defense needs to bring the blitz and jump onBears quarterback Jay Cutler quickly. That will then force the bears to go withtheir running game which the Packers have a better chance of stopping. If the Packerscan do that then I say they pull out the win thirty one to twenty seven.

For the Bears to beat the Packersthey need to contain Aaron Rodgers. Because Rodgers is fantastic at getting outof the pocket and extending plays it is crucial for the Bears to contain himand apply as much pressure as possible. Besides that, if the Bears receivers canget just a few steps on the Packer defense they have a great e a greatopportunity to score a lot of points in the air. If all of these things happenfor the bears I say they pull out the win against the Packers twenty four totwenty.

Expect to see a very back and forthgame, with a lot of yards gained. Both teams have dominant offenses and bothhave the potential to score a large sum of points. With an interesting matchupbetween Rodgers and Cutler I wouldn’t want to miss this game; the oldestrivalry in football.(WC 431)
