Chicago has overcome a disastrous start to have a respectable season by winning five of seven, including 37-17 over Atlanta on Sunday when Justin Fields threw for 268 yards and a TD and ran for a TD and D.J. Moore caught nine passes for 159 yards and a score. Now the Bears have an opportunity to ruin their archrivals' playoff hopes as Green Bay can clinch a postseason berth with a win and the Packers would need three other teams to lose to get in without beating the Bears. Chicago is 7-2-1 its past 10 games and 6-0-1 ATS against versus NFC opponents. Green Bay is 1-6 ATS after totaling more than 350 yards their previous game and they come off a win over Minnesota, which was using a fourth-string quarterback, and the Packers were fortunate to defeat lowly Carolina the week before. That game followed two losses against Tampa Bay and the New York Giants. Green Bay has gone OVER six games in a row and Chicago sailed OVER by 14.5 points against the Falcons. The Packers are 13-3 OVER their past 16 January games, 17-5 OVER overall following a win and 27-8 OVER after winning by more tha 14 points. Play the Bears as a Max Play and the OVER.
