Chicago takes center stage tonight as the Packers and Bears meet for a third time this season in the Wild Card Round at Soldier Field.
The NFC North rivalry shapes up as one of the must-watch games of Wild Card Weekend as we dish on our Packers vs. Bears predictions ahead of kickoff at 8 p.m. ET on Saturday, January 10.

Take the +1.5 with the Chicago Bears.
The Bears’ path to victory is built on the ground game. They can control pace and possession against a Green Bay run defense that has been gashed since losing key bodies in the trenches.
-105 at FanDuel
There’s enough firepower on the field to top the total, but a run-centric Chicago attack could keep gains shorter with the clock ticking.
Adding to the case is a wintry forecast, with “feels like” temperatures around 9 degrees, wind gusts up to 39 mph, and possible snow in the first half of Saturday night.
I’d lean Under.

It is always tough to pick which Bears receiver is going to be the touchdown scorer in any given week. Caleb Williams has 27 passing touchdowns, yet no target has more than six touchdowns. That is why I am just taking the guy with the best odds, DJ Moore.
Moore had a touchdown against the Packers in Week 16 and was the main deep-threat target. While Luther Burden and Rome Odunze will be playing this time around, their odds being so much shorter doesn’t make sense.
Moore found the endzone seven times this season and three of those scores came in games with both Burden and Odunze on the field.
The Packers defense ranks 23rd in the NFL in defending long passes. Williams attempted 60 passes of at least 20 yards during the regular season and completed 40% of those throws, which was the 11th-highest mark in the NFL.
He threw eight deep-pass touchdowns, tied for third-most in the NFL. Burden may be the typical deep threat, but Moore proved to be one himself against the Packers, catching three of four targets of 10+ yards. Moore’s odds being higher than Burden make him my favorite play for a Bears touchdown scorer.

With Packers wide receiver Jayden Reed expected to play in Week 18 and carrying no injury designation, I anticipate he’ll be fully healthy and heavily involved on Saturday night.
Reed averaged 40.5 receiving yards per game from Weeks 14-17 and has caught 19 of 22 targets this season.
While Reed's yards after catch per reception has dropped to 4.5 this season, down from 7.1 in 2025, his aDOT remained steady at 8.3 this year compared to 8.6 last year.
Positive regression is on the horizon for the Michigan State man.
