The Green Bay Packers will face off against the Chicago Bears in NFL Week 12 action on Thanksgiving Day this week.

It wouldn’t be the first time the Packers and Bears have played a prime-time game in monsoon-like conditions.
As of the current standings, the Packers are on top of the division with a 7-3 record, the Minnesota Vikings are close behind with the same record but since the Packers beat them last week, they fell to the second spot.
“I knew when I got a tattoo, the first one I was going to get was Brett Favre”, said Raisbeck. Chicago’s preference is to limit the damage inflicted by QB Packers Aaron Rodgers, who has dominated QB Jay Cutler in the series.
Aaron Rodgers often speaks with pride about the history of the Green Bay Packers, a franchise that has been fortunate to have three of the game’s best quarterbacks on its side.
Fair or not, the 55-14 walloping the Packers put on the Bears a year ago will provide part of the context for Thursday night’s prime time reunion at Lambeau Field.
Forte’s 141 rushing yards in that contest remain his season best, with 105 coming in the first half. The Vikings will have to wait for another chance until January 3, 2016, when they play the Packers in the regular-season finale.
Matt Forte (knee) and Alshon Jeffery (groin, shoulder) are active and will return to the Bears’ starting lineup on Thursday night against the Packers. Coaches faced the prospect of juggling as much work as possible at practice with the desire to get players rest.
Romo shook off some of the rust in the win last week over the Dolphins, throwing two TDs and two picks.
This could play into the hands of Denver’s defense, which will try to blanket tight end Rob Gronkowski.
Green Bay has been a M.A.S.H. unit at wide receiver, but Rodgers and the boys seems to have started figuring things out.
Brett Favre says he was never as good as the man who replaced him at quarterback for the Green Bay Packers. “We have to play pretty good football for four quarters and we have to play really good football for the fourth quarter”. Against the Broncos, Cutler had one of his worst games of the season, completing just 56.3 percent of his passes for 265 yards with no touchdowns and an interception.
While the Bears’ defense has improved over the last few weeks, the same can’t be said of the Packers.

The look became a viral hit on social media, even though Jones said that he only wore the hoodie to stay warm.
