The big question this week was how healthy Aaron Rodgers would be come game time.  Rodgers is dealing with a hamstring injury and those can always be nasty.  If Rodgers is even at 90% this week against the Bears, the Packers should blow out Chicago at home.  Cutler has actually had a solid season statistically, but he just can’t seem to win.  The Packers on the other hand took a tough road loss against the Saints their last time out and will look to rebound against a Bears team that just allowed 51 points on the road to New England. 

The Bears have allowed opposing offenses to score at ease this season and now face a Packers team that crushed them in Chicago 38-17 back in week four.  The biggest weakness for the Packers have been their run defense and the Bears must exploit that to have a chance in this one.  If they can get Forte going early and keep ARod off the field, it will give them an opportunity to stay in this one.  But they have to find a way to prevent Jordy and Cobb from finding the end zone like they did so easily the first time these two teams played.  But if Rodgers is healthy, despite injuries along the offensive line which could hurt, the Packers should be able to score enough points against this suspect Chicago defense.
