Chicago Bears

What an incredibly unexpected win from the Bears in Week 1 over the highly favored San Francisco 49ers. Trey Lance looked awful in the rain against this new defense of the Bears, and that is yet to be determined if it was him or the weather. Either way, Chicago's defense looked like an elite unit out there despite losing Khalil Mack and several other veterans.

The offense got the job done with three touchdowns of its own, despite the final score being 19-0. Chicago kicker Cairo Santos missed two extra points, but that we can blame on the weather. Still, that isn't to say the offense was very impressive on Sunday. The Bears actually averaged the fewest yards per play of any team in the opening week at just 3.6. The offense lacks talent, but seeing some growth out of Justin Fields is all that matters this season for Chicago. He threw for just 121 yards, but he did have two TDs.

However, Lambeau will be a different challenge entirely.

Green Bay Packers

Life without Davante Adams has started off exactly like you might have expected from the Packers. Terrible. They missed him, and it was perhaps the most obvious takeaway of any team in Week 1. The Packers lost, 23-7, to their divisional rival Minnesota Vikings, and Aaron Rodgers looked visibly frustrated with his receivers throughout the entire game. If this is the new offense that Green Bay will be employing, the Packers could have a huge problem on their hands. The defense is good, but it can only do so much if the offense can't get back to its usual form.

The great news for the Packers here is that Aaron Rodgers owns the Bears. The Packers are 6-0 ATS in their last six games vs. Bears and 8-1 straight up in their last nine home games. Even with a bad offense, history tells us that it simply doesn't matter and Green Bay wins by default.

Bears at Packers Prediction: Under 43

The spread for this game is massive at -9.5 for Green Bay, and while I am tempted to take it with the history between these two teams, I just can't lay that number. Both offenses were absolutely terrible in the opening week and I think it's possible we get that again here in Week 2. Especially on Chicago's side, as I have little faith they can go into Lambeau and score a bunch of points. The Bears defense is better than advertised, and I think they can at least hold their own against this Packers offense, which averaged just 5.5 yards per play against a mediocre Vikings defense. I'll take the under at 43.
