Quote from Maverick74:
Dude, I seriously think you are clueless about football man. The Bears beat GB earlier in the year when GB was the best team in football bar none. They were already talking about Aaron Rodgers being the season's MVP when the bears beat them. The bears match up very well with GB man for man. If the game were in GB, I would take the Packers, but not in Chicago. And btw, the Bears have won 8 of their last 10 and they are also peaking right now. In fact, they are playing better football now then anytime this season.
The difference between these two teams is that the Packers have no running game and that makes them one dimensional on offense. They have a stellar defense and probably the best pure quarterback in the NFL. But at this level of the playoffs you have to be able to run the ball to win. That is why the Bears struggled early on in the season. Marz had no desire to commit to the run. Now he understands he has to do that to win. The Bears actually have a running game. Starks just isn't good enough to carry their running game. They'll play a cover 2 defense to stop Aaron and force him to run the ball. They won't be able to and they will lose. It will be a good game and close, but the Bears will beat them and most likely get lit up in the Superbowl against the Pats.
