The Bears scored 35 points in their lone playoff game but totaled just 23 total points in two meetings against the Packers this season.
Another interesting prop odd for this game is will there be a defensive or special teams touchdown? The odds of yes stand at +145 while the odds of no stand at -175. For Chicago, the Bears have three punt returns for touchdowns thanks to Devin Hester while the Packers don’t have a special teams touchdown. In terms of defense, Chicago has scored just one defensive touchdowns and Green Bay has scored four. However, the Packers have allowed just one defensive touchdown while Chicago has allowed six, which is amongst the most in the NFL. With Jay Cutler’s tendency to make some poor throws, this could be a wager worth jumping on.
