It has been many, many years since the Chicago Bears have had a roster as talented as the one they currently boast, at least on paper.
They have someone many feel can become a legitimate franchise quarterback in rookie Caleb Williams, as well as three bona fide playmakers in wide receivers D.J. Moore, Keenan Allen and rookie Rome Odunze.
There seems to be a pathway for Chicago to make the playoffs this season, but the NFC North could be very competitive, and an old rival is looking to make a big jump themselves.
Analyst Carmen Vitali said the one thing the Bears need to do to prove they can be successful this year is to defeat the Green Bay Packers in Week 11.
“That’s all Chicago fans need to see to know that this is going to work,” Vitali said on “Speak”.

The Bears and Packers have one of the NFL’s most storied rivalries, and that Week 11 matchup between them at Soldier Field could be a doozy.
Right now, the Packers are everyone’s darlings after they surged late last season and upset the Dallas Cowboys in convincing fashion in the wild-card round of the playoffs, and a win by the Bears over them would be cause for celebration throughout Illinois.
While the first half of Chicago’s schedule looks very manageable, Week 11 will start a challenging stretch in which it will also play the Minnesota Vikings twice, the Detroit Lions twice and the San Francisco 49ers once.
The Bears wrap up the regular season against the Packers at Lambeau Field in a contest that, pardon the cliche, could have serious playoff implications.
