Chicago Bears Mailbag: Time to think Super Bowl?

I can’t wait for this week’s game. Who do you think is going to dominate this game against the Packers?
If there is any player that is poised to have a big game against Green Bay on Sunday, it would likely be Jordan Howard. He ran well against them in the first matchup and this time around that 24th ranked run defense is considerably more banged up. Particularly in regards to Kenny Clark, their top-notch nose tackle who exited the Falcons game last week with an elbow injury. Howard has run the ball really well the past two weeks and seems to be finding his groove.

Why am I not confident against the Packers until we finally beat them? I feel like Rodgers goes in there super confident like he’s slapping around a baby brother.
It’s understandable. Ric Flair always had the best line for this. To be the man, you have to beat the man. That’s something the Bears haven’t done. They’ve beaten Green Bay just seven times since 2006 and only beaten Rodgers three of those times. He loves playing at Soldier Field and has every reason to feel confident going into this game. It falls on the Bears to change the plot and prove to everybody that this isn’t the same, old story anymore.
