Odds, best bets and analysis for this NFC North showdown

What an incredibly unexpected win from the Bears in Week 1 over the highly favored San Francisco 49ers. Trey Lance looked awful in the rain against this new defense of the Bears, and that is yet to be determined if it was him or the weather. Either way, Chicago's defense looked like an elite unit out there despite losing Khalil Mack and several other veterans.
The offense got the job done with three touchdowns of its own, despite the final score being 19-0. Chicago kicker Cairo Santos missed two extra points, but we can blame on the weather. Still, that isn't to say the offense was very impressive on Sunday. The Bears actually averaged the fewest yards per play of any team in the opening week at just 3.6. The offense lacks talent, but seeing some growth out of Justin Fields is all that matters this season for Chicago. He threw for just 121 yards, but he did have two TDs.
How ever, Lambeau will be a different challenge entirely.
