Packers vs. Bears Predictions: Aaron Rodgers and Co. Will Clinch Division

The Chicago Bears have the NFC North division to fight for as they face the Green Bay Packers Sunday afternoon at 1 p.m. ET. 

The Bears' fight might be over soon after, however, as Aaron Rodgers and the Packers come into this matchup winners of 4-1. They are red hot and the Bears are completely cold going 1-4 in their last five games. 

Teams have found holes in a Bears defense that was completely feared just weeks ago. They remain on top of the league allowing the third fewest points, but their offense is too weak to go head-to-head with the Packers. 

Going into today's matchup, the Bears are the fifth worst team in total yards averaging just under 315 per game. Their running game drives them, but Jay Cutler and Brandon Marshall don't have enough of a supporting cast to help them out. 

The Bears have the edge on defense, but the Packers' offense will find a way to get points.

Rodgers protects the ball only throwing eight interceptions all season long. This is key because the Bears are unforgiving on defense forcing fumbles and grabbing a league-leading 31 interceptions. 

Rodgers and the Packers can win under crucial situations and Soldier Field will not intimidate them. The reward for winning is too great for the Packers to fold today. 

Scoring Prediction: A low scoring matchup lies ahead because the Bears will control the tempo on defense. Last time these two met, the Bears only scored 10 points. Rodgers will carry the load passing for just over 200 yards, with a TD pass and rush. Packers will win 17-13.
