Desperate measures:Bears defensive tackle Tommie Harris recorded two sacks through the first 11 weeks of the season. In his last four contests, he's taken down opposing quarterbacks three times. The Bears, who need a win to stay in the playoff hunt, have won 12 of their past 15 when Harris records a sack.
The streak: The Packers have lost six of their last seven games and played themselves out of playoff contention, but WR Donald Driver has a chance to keep a personal streak alive. Driver has caught a pass in 109 consecutive games, a franchise record.
