Packers-Bears meet for third time ever in postseason
Our Summary
The Green Bay Packers and Chicago Bears are set to face off for the third time in 34 days, marking their third postseason meeting in history. The teams have previously split their playoff encounters, with the Bears winning in 1941 and the Packers triumphing in the 2010 NFC Championship. Historically, the Packers lead the overall series, 109-97-6. This season, both teams have split their regular-season games, with the Bears winning one in overtime after a comeback.
Green Bay enters the playoffs on a four-game losing streak, a rare occurrence in NFL history, having not won since their Week 14 victory over the Bears. Despite this, the Packers are favored by 1.5 points. They are the only No. 7 seed to have won a playoff game since the format expanded, having defeated the Cowboys in Dallas two years ago.
