NFL player props & bets: Packers vs. Bears picks (2026)
The Packers-Bears rivalry is the NFL’s oldest. Yet, this will be just the third time these two teams have met in the playoffs. The Packers beat the Bears 21-14 in the NFC Championship Game in January 2011.
Jordan Love threw for 234 passing yards and three touchdowns - two of them big plays to Christian Watson - as Green Bay edged above Chicago to become division leaders with a 9-3-1 record. But the 9-4 Bears have the chance to get payback and potentially regain top spot when they welcome the Packers to Chicago in two weeks.
The Bears concluded a magical regular season with a 19-16 loss to the Lions Sunday at Soldier Field, but the NFC North champions secured the No. 2 seed in the playoffs with Philadelphia’s 24-17 home defeat to Washington.
When the Chicago Bears selected Caleb Williams with the No. 1 overall pick of the 2024 NFL draft, they surely envisioned him leading the franchise in critical postseason moments.
