Bears' brutal injury attrition could be a curse in disguise for Packers

Heading into a pivotal matchup between the Green Bay Packers and the Chicago Bears that could decide the fate of the NFC North, the Bears have been hit with a brutal stroke of injury luck. Rome Odunze and Luther Burden III, two of their top receivers, are set to miss Saturday's game due to injury.

That leaves second-year QB Caleb Williams with limited options in the passing game, right when he needs them the most. Sounds like great news for Green Bay, right?

Not so fast. The injuries could force the Bears to lean into one of their biggest strengths, potentially exposing a glaring weakness in the Packers' defense.
