While the Bears entered the season high on Caleb Williams and a fresh roster, it\u2019s all spiraled out of control.<\/p>\n<p>Their <strong>offensive coordinator\u2019s been fired<\/strong>, and the offense is barely managing ten points a game. Rookie quarterback Williams? Struggling so much that there\u2019s even talk of benching him for the game. A season that started with promise for Chicago now looks like a dumpster fire we could put out entirely.<\/p>\n<p>On our end, the Packers sit at 6-3, hanging on to the <strong>NFC wild card race<\/strong> by a thread, but a win this week would give us some much-needed breathing room. Jordan Love\u2019s been solid but needs to tighten up on the picks if we\u2019re going to secure this spot.<\/p>\n<div>\n<figure><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/totalpackers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/jordan-love-wicks-dallas-playoffs-1200x800.webp\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" srcset=\"https:\/\/totalpackers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/jordan-love-wicks-dallas-playoffs-1200x800.webp 1200w, https:\/\/totalpackers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/jordan-love-wicks-dallas-playoffs-650x433.webp 650w, https:\/\/totalpackers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/jordan-love-wicks-dallas-playoffs-768x512.webp 768w, https:\/\/totalpackers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/jordan-love-wicks-dallas-playoffs-1536x1024.webp 1536w, https:\/\/totalpackers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/jordan-love-wicks-dallas-playoffs-scaled.webp 2048w, https:\/\/totalpackers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/jordan-love-wicks-dallas-playoffs-750x500.webp 750w, https:\/\/totalpackers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/jordan-love-wicks-dallas-playoffs-1140x760.webp 1140w\" alt=\"Packers Poised to Close the Casket on Bears\u2019 Season\" width=\"1200\" height=\"800\" data-dominant-color=\"656250\" data-has-transparency=\"false\" \/><figcaption>Jan 14, 2024; Arlington, Texas, USA; Green Bay Packers quarterback Jordan Love (10) reacts with wide receiver Dontayvion Wicks (13) after a touchdown catch in the first half of the 2024 NFC wild card game at AT&amp;T Stadium.

That rivalry magic still lives; despite everything, Bears tickets are flying off the shelves. <strong>The average ticket is topping $477, making this the hottest ticket in the NFL this weekend.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The draw? The promise that Green Bay might officially knock Chicago out of contention while Bears fans still hold on to some shred of hope.<\/p>\n<p>We\u2019re fresh off a bye, <strong>slightly healthier<\/strong> and more focused, while the Bears are in shambles, not even sure who\u2019s starting under center.

All that hype and Heisman talk for nothing.<\/p>\n<p>The Bears are stuck with another quarterback who can\u2019t get it done.

They can fire their coaches, shuffle their quarterbacks, and draft all the \u201cskill players\u201d they want; it won\u2019t make a difference.
