2. Tyler Lancaster
Kenny Clark in probably the most important player on the Green Bay Packers defense this week. He must hold up strong on the nose and make Mitch Trubisky beat them. But Clark cannot do it alone. Others must step up as well.
We have seen Dean Lowry step up with the injuries to Mike Daniels and Muhammad Wilkerson, now it’s Tyler Lancaster’s turn.
At six foot-three inches and 313 pounds, Lancaster has more than enough size to hang with the big boys in the middle. He has seen his snaps increase over the past few weeks, and with Trubisky throwing three picks against the LA Rams, the run game will most likely be the plan of attack for the Bears.
The Packers will have to control the line of scrimmage and force the Bears into long down-and-distances while not allowing the Bears to gash the defense for big, time-controlling gains.
If Green Bay can force the Bears to be one-dimensional, Trubisky has shown he will give opposing teams chances for turnovers and game-changing plays. Turnovers tend to come in bunches. With the Packers forcing two last week against the Falcons, here’s to hoping that is the start of a good thing.
