Statistical Breakdown: How the Bears and Packers stack up before Week 13 game

The Chicago Bears (3-9) will face the Green Bay Packers (4-8) on Sunday, where Chicago is looking to break a five-game losing streak.

The Bears are coming off a 31-10 loss to the New York Jets, where they were without quarterback Justin Fields, who has a separated left shoulder. The offense looked vastly different in his absence, managing just 10 points in the first half and held scoreless in the second half of action.
