- Obviously, one of the reasons the Bears are struggling so much right now is because of injuries. The Packers are healthy as can be, and maybe that is as big a reason as any of why they're undefeated. Green Bay has zero regular starters out for this game, and defensive tackle Justin Harrell and running back Brandon Jackson are both questionable.

- The Packers are about as one dimensional as offenses come: they're dead last in the league in rushing at under 55 yards per game. Hopefully the vaunted Bears cover-2 will be able slow down Farve's passing attack.

- If John Tait can't start for the Bears because of a high ankle sprain, and he didn't practice Wednesday or Thursday, then John St. Clair is going to have his hands full all day. Aaron Kampman is a classic overachiever who has been unreal recently, and a speed rusher like KBG could give a backup tackle nightmares.

Prediction: If the Bears lose this game, they aren't going to win the division and would have to go a tear just to make the playoffs. Call me crazy, but I like the Bears in Lambeau. Lovie values beating the Pack almost a little too much, and the Bears know how important this game is. And does anyone think the Packers are 5-0 good? I've been calling for it for weeks, but please just give Benson more then 20 carries. If Tait doesn't play, the Griese-Man is going to have about 0.3 seconds to throw anyways, so just pound the ball with your running backs.
