Bold predictions for Packers and Bears

5. Josiah Deguara will score a touchdown

The Packers really miss Robert Tonyan’s ability to make big catches over the middle, but Deguara is starting to emerge as a quality option for Aaron Rodgers. He’s still splitting time with Mercedes Lewis at the tight end spot but he’s starting to earn more and more snaps in Matt LaFleur’s offense.

The Bears certainly aren’t going to pay him a ton of attention which will give him a shot to find the end zone in this game. Don’t be surprised if Rodgers finds him for an easy score on a check down.
