The Bears are a 6.5-point underdog in this week's game, likely leading to a passing game script.The most plays in football have been run by the Chicago Bears this year (a massive 61.8 per game on average).The pass games of both teams (in terms of both volume and effectiveness) stand to benefit from the still weather conditions (4-mph wind) being projected in this game, while rush volume may drop.In regards to pocket protection (and the strong effect it has on all passing game statistics), the offensive line of the Bears profiles as the 3rd-best in the league this year.This year, the formidable Green Bay Packers run defense has surrendered a feeble 0.75 rushing touchdowns per game to opposing squads: the 8th-best rate in the NFL.
