It’s time. Let’s get this show on the road.
It’s time. Green Bay Packers vs. Chicago Bears, Round III is about to start, and with it the right to advance to the NFC Divisional Playoffs. These two teams know each other all too well, having split their two regular season meetings late in the season, and it should be a great game this evening at Soldier Field.
The Packers are a bit fresh on the health front, having rested most of their starters in a meaningless Week 18 game. Chicago played their key players in a loss to the Detroit Lions, but they get some reinforcements this week as well off the injured list, with wide receiver Rome Odunze and cornerback Kyler Gordon playing.
Both games earlier this year were separated by a touchdown or less and both came down to the wire. Keisean Nixon’s interception in the end zone sealed a 28-21 win for the Packers at Lambeau Field in Week 14, then the Bears mounted a late comeback for a 22-16 overtime win at Soldier Field 13 days later.
Will late-game heroics be needed again tonight? There’s only one way to find out. Tune in and join us in the comments to discuss tonight’s game, and let’s cheer the Packers on to a victory in just the third playoff meeting between these two historical rivals.
Go Pack Go!
