Bears vs. Packers Key Player to Watch
- Caleb Williams, QB - Chicago Bears
Caleb Williams has played well this season, throwing for 2,722 yards, 17 touchdowns, and only five interceptions. He's done a much better job this season, avoiding sacks and taking off with his legs when he needs to. He hasn't been elite, but he hasn't lost games for the Bears either. Can he take a step forward in his development in the final stretch of the season?
Bears vs. Packers Prediction and Pick
In this week's edition of the Road to 272 Bets, I wrote about why the Bears are my upset pick of the week:
It's time to start believing in the Chicago Bears. Despite the metrics showing they aren't nearly as good as their record, they find ways to win games. Whether it's against an inferior or superior opponent, they'll squeak out a win via strong play by their offensive line, winning the turnover battle, and taking advantage of late-game opportunities.
The Packers have been the complete opposite of that this season. Their underlying metrics are elite, but they've let moments and games slip through their grasp more than once. The Packers' defense ranks outside the top 10 in opponent rush success rate, while the Bears are first in offensive rush success rate. That could be the difference-maker, and it's enough for me to back the Bears as my upset pick of the week.
