These three reasons are why the Green Bay Packers will defeat the Chicago Bears and lock in home-field advantage throughout the playoffs.

The stakes couldn’t be higher on Sunday when the Green Bay Packers take on the Chicago Bears in the 2020 season finale. The Bears are trying to earn a final spot in the playoffs, while the Packers are looking to lock in home-field advantage throughout the NFC playoffs.

There’s already been plenty of chatter surrounding these two teams which means this game should be hyped to the max. Fortunately, Green Bay has a clear edge in a number of areas and should be able to take home the victory because of these three reasons.

Reason Packers can defeat bears no. 3. Pressure off the edge

The Packers have a nice rotation at outside linebacker with Za’Darius Smith, Preston Smith and Rashan Gary all getting their fair share of reps. The Bears will have their hands full, especially right tackle Germain Ifedi, when it comes to slowing down this rush. They’ve given up 35 sacks on the year and the Packers should be able to get after Mitchell Trubisky and make him uncomfortable all game long.
