For nearly 30 years, the Bears-Packers rivalry has come down to a simple, yet enormous difference in favor of Green Bay: The team with the quarterback beats the team that has everything but a quarterback.
Between Brett Favre and Aaron Rodgers, the Packers have repeatedly outclassed the Bears at the most important position on the field. Those two have dominated against the likes of Rex Grossman, Kyle Orton, Kordell Stewart and Cade McNown.
Either of the Green Bay legends has had a better chance with no help than Mitch Trubisky has with tons of it.
It’s the biggest reason the Packers are 40-15 in this series with Favre or Rodgers as they prepare to host the Bears on Sunday.
