00:00the Packers a 10 and a half point favorite against a team that has lost 10 consecutive games in

00:06Chicago. Again, Green Bay, with a win, still needs some help. If the Commanders beat the Cowboys on

00:14Sunday at the Star, Washington a six and a half point road favorite, Green Bay pretty locked into

00:20that seven spot in pole position to claim the sixth seed. If the Commanders lose and the Packers

00:27handle the Bears as the odds expect, then Green Bay could jump up to the sixth spot, which is

00:32important because you would go on the road to the three seed, which is either the Bucks or the Rams,

00:38and not the seventh seed on the road to the two seed, which we know is Philadelphia. But Joe,

00:44it's still a double digit spread. How do you approach the rivalry renewed at Lambeau Field?

00:49Oh, I don't know about rivalry renewed here. It really doesn't make a difference who the

00:55quarterback is for Green Bay. They apparently still own the Chicago Bears. Now, 11 straight

01:02games that they have lost to the Packers. They're one in 10, by the way, in those games against the

01:08number. And the one lone cover, give him credit, Ben, came earlier this year as Green Bay ended up

01:15winning on a blocked field goal, if you remember that disaster. And Matt LaFleur has stated that

01:22all the team's healthy starters will play in this game as they can secure, like you said,

01:29the number six seed. And if the Commanders somehow lose, which is always a possibility here,

01:35well, that's a much easier first round trip to play the Rams or the Bucks instead of having to

01:40go to the Eagles. So I anticipate Green Bay going full board here, and there is nothing redeeming

01:47about the Chicago team. They're not well coached. They are all waiting for what's going to happen in

01:53the offseason here. Yeah, I, to me, this is all about Green Bay handling their business in a big

02:00way and getting the bad taste out of their mouth against, with that game against Minnesota that

02:05they got actually beat pretty easily in. So expect a bounce back here.
