Chicago Bears: vs. Green Bay Packers
There were few teams that disappointed more in 2019 than the Chicago Bears. Expectations were high for the Bears after they went 12-4 in 2018 but significant regression from Mitchell Trubisky was a big factor in a four-win dip year-to-year.
This offseason has also been a strange one for the Bears, who dumped $70 million in Robert Quinn’s lap to play opposite Khalil Mack and gave a two-year deal to fading Jimmy Graham at tight end. Graham’s deal contains a no-trade clause, which also makes no sense there was little reason to believe his market was robust enough to warrant one.
Nick Foles was also brought in to give the Bears another option if Trubisky can’t regain his 2018 form, a sign that Chicago believes it still has enough talent to make a run in the NFC North. The best test of that will come against the division’s reigning champions, the Green Bay Packers.
The Bears and Packers have the oldest rivalry in football and their meetings are usually very important, which their first matchup of 2019 proved. The teams opened the season at Soldier Field in Week 1, with the Packers walking away victorious to set the tone for the year for both teams.
Green Bay ended up getting all the way to the NFC Championship Game, a place the Bears haven’t been since losing to the Packers at home in that round in January of 2011. Getting some revenge in this matchup would help set the Bears up for a much better season in 2020.
