1. Chicago Bears

Back in Week 1, the Chicago Bears seemed to be on their way to a big win over the Green Bay Packers before Aaron Rodgers did one of those things in which he rallied the team against all odds to pull off the unthinkable win. And with the Packers in need of another big win to keep those playoff hopes alive, Rodgers would love nothing more than to see that magic happen again.

Chicago seemed to be a likely candidate at the beginning of the season to be a potential sleeper contender in the NFC, and they’ve certainly lived up to the hype so far when seeing how the team currently sits on top of the NFC North. In fact, the Bears made another huge statement on Sunday night when they held the Los Angeles Rams to scoring just six points, showing just how dangerous of a unit this defense can be.

By taking down the high-powered offense of the Rams, Chicago gives fans plenty of reasons to believe they same can be done to Rodgers and the Packers. But when looking at the history between these two parties, everyone knows that’s always easier said than done since Rodgers always plays his best football in these situations.
