Packers defensive front controls line of scrimmage and game vs. Bears

The Green Bay Packers defense gave up just nine points to the Chicago Bears during Sunday’s playoff-clinching win, and that success started with winning at the line of scrimmage.

This was a Bears offense that came into Sunday’s game with one of the more productive rushing attacks in football, averaging 4.6 yards per attempt as a team. This included Justin Fields ranking second among quarterbacks in rushing yards this season and running back Khalil Herbert being one of the more elusive backs, averaging just shy of 5.0 yards per carry on his own.
