The Bears just might win the Super Bowl

Interesting that you'd say that.  The true measure of consistency for a team is their win/loss record over an entire season.

That's not true at all. The NFL season is too short and the schedule too unbalanced to be considered the hallmark of a great team.

The Packers played the Eagles, Jets, Falcons, Patriots on the road and the Giants at home. That's brutal.

The Bears played the Giants on the road and the Jets, Eagles, and Patriots at home.

Not even close to the same thing. The Bears didn't even play the Falcons and got the majority of good teams at home (and were still annihilated by the Pats). The two teams' schedules weren't even close to being equal. That's just the nature of the NFL but it's another reason why the regular season has to be taken with a grain of salt.

Despite that more difficult schedule, the Packers scored far more points and allowed far fewer points than the Bears and ended up just one game behind Chicago. On paper and on the field, the Packers look like a better team. That doesn't mean they'll win on Sunday but that does explain why they're favored to do so.

What he said. Not to mention we lost our starting RB and TE key starters throughout the season. Yet still never lost by more than 4 points this season. A-rod is posting godly post season numbers too ...highest passer rating in nfl history atm.

Not to mention the fact that Aaron Rodgers has already been knocked out of multiple games this year due to concussions.
