Chicago Bears vs. Green Bay Packers Week 15 Pick

<p>
Green Bay clings to a division lead, but Chicago is hot, heading into the 198th edition of Bears-Packers Sunday afternoon at Lambeau Field. Green Bay beat Chicago earlier this season as an underdog, but it's favored by better than a field goal for this one.

Bears vs. Packers Set-Up<br />
</h2>
<p>
Chicago looked about dead a few weeks ago but suddenly has won three straight, after beating Dallas last Thursday night 31-24. The Bears, as three-point home dogs, spotted the Cowboys the first seven points of the game, then used a 24-0 run spanning the halves to take control. Chicago later gave up the last ten meaningless points of the game to create a slightly misleading final score.
</p>
<p>
On the night, the Bears out-rushed Dallas 151-82 and got four total touchdowns from quarterback Mitch Trubisky.
</p>
<p>
Two weeks ago, Chicago came from behind to win at Detroit 24-20, and three weeks ago, the Bears defeated the Giants 19-14.
</p>
<p>
After struggling most of this season offensively, Chicago is averaging 379 yards per game over its last three games.
</p>
<p>
At 7-6 overall, the Bears trail first-place Green Bay by three games in the NFC North, and they're two games behind Minnesota in the battle for the second NFC wild-card spot. So it's basically do-or-die time for Chicago, as far as the playoffs are concerned.

<p>
The Packers, meanwhile, are 2-0 since looking terrible in that loss out at San Francisco three weeks ago. Green Bay then beat the Giants in New Jersey 31-13, and last week held off Washington 20-15.
</p>
<p>
The Packers jumped out to a 14-0 first-quarter lead on the Redskins last week and held on from there. But they didn't cover as 13-point favorites.
</p>
<p>
Green Bay ran the ball for 174 yards on Washington, although that iffy Packers defense gave up 121 yards on the ground.
</p>
<p>
At 10-3 overall, the Packers lead the NFC North by one game over second-place Minnesota. Green Bay also owns the No. 2 spot in the NFC playoff standings, one game behind the top-seeded 49ers and only a conference tie-breaker ahead of No. 3 New Orleans. So the Packers are only a slip-up or two away from trouble, as far as the playoffs are concerned.
