So, we’re nine weeks into the 2017 NFL season. Here’s the NFC North in a nutshell: the Chicago Bears are favored over the Green Bay Packers. (In real life.)

What if someone told you that before the season started?

Check this out from NBC Chicago: The Bears haven’t been favored in a game against Green Bay since December of 2008. That game, which also took place at Soldier Field, saw the Bears go into the contest as four point favorites, but they were unable to cover the spread in a 20-17 win over their biggest rivals.
