No. Bears: 3-2 = .600 winning percentage Vikings: 3-2-1 = .583 winning percentage With a win, GB will 3-2-1 (.583) and take over second place in the North, I think ? (due to Buffalo loss-common game). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nozizaki Posted October 14, 2018 Share Posted October 14, 2018 Oof that -8 point differential looks bad. I know it's only the Buffalo game causing that, but man do we need a blow out win to cancel that out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Worm Guts Posted October 14, 2018 Share Posted October 14, 2018 Why are people concerned with irrelevant tiebreakers? Obviously both GB and Chicago tiebreakers will be determined by future games, so who cares who wins them now? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perhaps it's just the psychological boost having your team (technically) being in first place? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
