The Chicago Bears are favored on the road against the Green Bay Packers for their October 11, 2026 meeting, the first time in 20 years and only the third time in 30. The last time Chicago was favored at Lambeau, in Week 1 of 2006, that Bears team went to the Super Bowl. Chicago is without running back Kyle Monangai, who has a toe injury, is in a boot and is expected to miss about two weeks, but still leads the league in rushing; Green Bay's defense ranks 28th and the Packers have not scored a rushing touchdown this season. The discussion centers on Matt LaFleur's job security and whether Jordan Love is the least of Green Bay's problems.
