Quoted from Whysnow:
are you sure you are a bears fan?
I full predict they win today and lose next Sunday (would be predictable and GB likely wants some revenge from 2 years ago when they were knocked out on the last game or w15? of the season by the Bears).
I expect failure from this crew despite moments of greatness... they are consistently inconsistent.

GB is likely to have nothing to play for and even if they lose that game, ARI would have to beat the Rams. If they beat Jax today, Vegas has their playoff chances at 84%. I like their chances.

My favorite scenario is we lock up the 1 seed tonight and accidentally knock the bears off next week with Tim Boyle at the helm.

Chiefs are playing with fire. How many straight 1 possession wins is this now? Reminds me of the steelers 4 or 5 weeks ago.

Reminds me of new england last year when they were 8-0. I think Mahomes will kick it up into playoff gear to keep it going, but his teammates have to step up.

The Rams are bad, very bad every third game or so. It all depends on which qb they start. Jared Goff, or jared gofful.
On a side not, I tried to buy my wife a Rams jersey for xmas. She wanted Kupp or Donald. They were all sold out everywhere, but there were tons of Goff available. What were all the distributors thinking? Noone wants a Goff jersey.

Packers look the best they have in many years. Even resting players then should beat up on the Bears. I also don’t think they will rest many players. Oldest rivalry and packers don’t do well with “off” weeks so they will play the Allstars.

Would be really fun to see the Bears get a post season game, but this years team is predictably bad with still some super JV squad decisions each game.

Bears offense has actually looked pretty good since the bye. We'll see. I definitely dont expect GB to lay down the last week ( if we have the opportunity). I think generally if you have a chance to eliminate any team from the playoffs, you take it. That's especially true for rivals.

The only problem with that is that this isn’t the Favre led packers who were great in the snow. This is the softer(no offense) Rodgers led packers.

On another note, if you aren't already watching the Cowboys game, you should go watch it. They are introducing some new camera "shots and styles." It's amazing!

Was hoping Rams could keep their lead going into halftime, where they are undefeated under McVay/Goff. Unfortunately it is tied 6-6. Defense is playing great, but gofful is at qb today.

We will see if he has an answer after Wilson's TD, Rams are going to need more than good D to win this game.

True. And 4th and half a yard is when you should go for a qb sneak, not a pitch back to the running back who has to then go 5 yards. Horrible play call.
