The Chicago Bears and the Green Bay Packers will get together on Thursday night in the National Football League. The Bears and Packers are both out of the NFC North, and are predicted at the top of the division. Chicago comes into the game with a 1-0 record after beating up on Indianapolis on Sunday. The Packers are in search of their first win of the season; as they got beat by San Francisco on Sunday.

The Green Bay Packers had a terrible time slowing down the new looked 49ers offense. San Francisco scored 30 points in the win. Green Bay also had some struggles moving the ball as well, as they didn’t score in the first or third quarter of the game. Green Bay’s defense allowed San Francisco to pick up 186 yards per game on the ground in the game. This is the second of two straight home games to start the season for the Packers.

The Bears started slow, including a pass by Jay Cutler intercepted and returned for a touchdown. After that, Chicago caught on fire, and ended the game with 41 points. Chicago gave rookie quarterback Andrew Luck a rude awakening to the NFL, as they intercepted three of his passes, and also forced him to fumble.
