In the match-up of the week, the New England Patriots carry their momentum into a snowy Soldier Field Sunday afternoon to face-off with the Bears in a game that has playoff implications for both squads. Now to break it down!

How's that for an analogy? Sunday's divisional match-up at Soldier Field will feature two teams going in opposite directions.
While the Bears may be hanging their hat on how close their week one loss to Green Bay was (in spite of four Cutler picks), this is not the same Green Bay. Their defense is among the best in the NFL and their offense has found a groove under their now-protected quarterback Aaron Rodgers. They've been running the ball effectively if nothing else and shouldn't have any problems dissecting a Bears defense that lacks any real continuity. If Chicago is to have a chance against the Packers offense, their pass rush must routinely put Rodgers on the ground with pressure from their front four.
