**Packers Poised to Continue Dominance Over Struggling Bears**

The Chicago Bears are facing turbulent times as they prepare to host their longstanding rivals, the Green Bay Packers. Coming off a bye week, the Packers are looking to extend their impressive winning streak against the Bears to 11 games. Their last defeat at the hands of Chicago happened in 2018, and the current state of the Bears makes it hard to envision an end to this streak.

The Bears’ current condition appears dire. Quarterback Caleb Williams is underperforming, with some teammates reportedly advocating for his benching. Additionally, the team is in the midst of installing a new offensive coordinator, replacing Shane Waldron, who was criticized for being "too nice." This change adds another layer of instability to a squad that seems on the verge of losing control of their season. Facing a well-rested Jordan Love and a confident Packers team only adds to the Bears' mounting challenges.

Meanwhile, Patrick Mahomes continues to be a force to be reckoned with in the NFL. As a betting underdog, Mahomes boasts an impressive 11-3 record since 2018, with five consecutive upsets, including a triumph over San Francisco earlier this year. Interestingly, his last setback as an underdog was delivered by the Bills in 2022. The Kansas City Chiefs seem well-prepared to handle Buffalo’s ground game, ranking third in rushing yards allowed per game. With the Bills also grappling with injuries among their pass catchers, the Chiefs’ prospects appear bright. A victory in this challenging clash might even set the Chiefs on a path to contemplate a 17-0 season.

Last week saw mixed results for our predictions, with a win from the Steelers and a loss from the Vikings, bringing the season’s tally to 7-13.
