Let's dive into my Packers vs. Bears prediction on Saturday Night Football (ESPN) as the NFC North rivals battle it out for the division lead on prime time at Soldier Field with kickoff set for 8:20 p.m. ET. The opening odds have Green Bay as slight 1.5-point favorites. However, my early picks back Chicago in what should be an offensive struggle for both sides.

The Bears have won six of their last seven games and are absolutely rolling, demolishing Shedeur Sanders and the Cleveland Browns 31-3 last week. Chicago has the second-best rushing defense in the NFL over the last three games, and the offense will be getting a Packers defense without Micah Parsons after suffering a non-contact knee injury in Week 15.
