Bears favored at Lambeau for first time since 2006 as Packers face third-down crisis
The Chicago Bears are favored by three points at Lambeau Field for the first time since 2006, despite starting backup quarterback Tyson Bagent. The Packers, who lost linebacker Edgerrin Cooper in Week 4, face a critical mismatch: their league-worst 26% third-down conversion rate against Chicago’s elite 24% third-down defense. While Green Bay’s offense struggles with dropped passes and penalties, the Bears’ run game leads the NFL, creating a significant disadvantage for the hosts in this rivalry showdown.
