Steelers vs Bears – Week 12 Preview & Prediction

Caleb Williams and the 7-3 Chicago Bears are in first place in the NFC North, their first year head coach Ben Johnson has been incredible in establishing a winning culture immediately.

Aaron Rodgers makes his return to Soldier Field for likely the last time in his NFL career, the question is with the Aaron Rodgers injury, whether or not he will play in this game. The Bears offense has been one of the best in the NFL as D’Andre Swift leads the rushing attack and their array of weapons of Rome Odunze, Colston Loveland, DJ Moore, Luther Burden and Cole Kmet provide one of the most challenging offenses in the league to defend.

The Pittsburgh Steelers are 6-4 and atop the AFC North they badly need a win as the Ravens are right on their tails, to do that they will need DK Metcalf to play a major role in taking advantage of the injuries in Chicago’s secondary, the Jaylon Johnson injury and Kyler Gordon injury have had them sidelined for almost the entire season without them the Chicago Bears pass rush of Montez Sweat, Austin Booker will need to get to the quarterback.

If Rodgers can’t go then it will be Mason Rudolph to try and step into a road game in what may be the most raucous and loud Soldier Field crowd in over half a decade. One of these teams will remain atop their division with a win and the other will be in a much tougher spot with a loss, a high stakes game in late November with a chill in the air and massive playoff implications, it does not get better than this!
