The Chicago Bears don't appear to need any more motivation to play at a high level this season considering they have looked fantastic each week. The Bears look like a completely different team from just a year ago and have the league's best defense this season.

Ahead of this week's matchup with the Green Bay Packers, the Bears are using quarterback Aaron Rodgers recent statements as motivation. According to Mike Florio of Pro Football Talk, Rodgers spoke about the team's situation a couple of weeks ago after the Packers lost to the Minnesota Vikings.

“We are where we are right now, record-wise, and we are going to need some help from some teams and then we have got to take care of our own business. We are going to have to find a way to win a game on the road. We are 0-6 on the road. We just need to go back home, get some rest, beat Arizona, and then come back, beat Atlanta. Then we need to go to Chicago, a place we’ve won a number of times, beat them. Go to New York [Jets] around Christmas, beat them, and then come home against Detroit, beat them. Get a little help.”

Rodgers may have to eat those words as the Bears will definitely be seeking revenge after their Week 1 loss to the Packers. The Bears defense is extremely fast and ferocious this season so Rodgers may have his hands full against players like Khalil Mack, Roquan Smith, and Akiem Hicks.
