Since arriving as head coach of the Packers in 2019, LaFleur has a 12-3 record against the Bears, including the postseason. His 80 percent win rate is the highest that any coach has ever generated against the Bears, with a minimum of 10 games played.
Johnson, of course, has won the last two — late in the 2025 regular season and then in the wild-card round. The Bears haven't beaten the Packers three times in a row since 2005-06. They're favored to win at Lambeau Field for the first time in 20 years.
Chicago's defense has become a real strength. The Bears have gone three straight games allowing 12 or fewer points. The last team to do that for four games in a row was the 2017 Eagles, who'd go on to win the Super Bowl that year.
