Meanwhile the Vikings are hosting the Dolphins. If the Bears lose to an average Miami team, a bad Packers team twice and below average team in the Giants, it won’t matter anyway. I’m assuming, in your scenario, that they win in weeks 15 and 16 as do the Vikings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Meanwhile the Vikings are hosting the Dolphins. They dog walked the Packers for a half and Fuller dropped a game sealing int. The offense did next to nothing bc it was just getting its bearings and had played 15 live snaps in the preseason. The defense particularly Mack and Smith were gassed. And that was on their field. If they are within 2 TDs of the Bears next week I'll be shocked. Disregarding the meaningless week 1 game (as its shown to be every year) In the Bears 3 losses the offense has scored 28, 31, and 27. The Pack dosen't have a good enough defense to stop our offense, and their offense damn sure ain't good enough to score consistently on our defensemen. Yeah I'm counting my chickens...blah blah. Bears fans have to admit to themselves that they have a really good team that nobody wants to play. I also damn sure ain't worried about Joe Philbin.

topwop1 Posted December 10, 2018 Share Posted December 10, 2018 Bears got a lot of help today with all of Carolina, Washington and Philly losing. Just 1 Bears win and 1 Washington loss should get them in playoffs now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Superman(DH23) Posted December 10, 2018 Share Posted December 10, 2018 Bears took care of business tonight. Have to do the same against the Pack next week and we will be hosting a playoff game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dll2000 Posted December 10, 2018 Share Posted December 10, 2018 It looks right now like Bears will be playing Vikings, Seattle or Carolina in wild card round at home. Last game sets up weird for Bears and Vikings. Likely meaningless game for Bears in terms of seeding, but it could decide whether Vikings make playoffs or not. I think Bears go all out in that situation to win game. You dont want to play same team three times and twice in a row. Or Vikings could have already locked up spot and it will be meaningless for both teams. In which case it makes interesting strategic decision of going all out for momentum or resting people and trying to stay healthy. I say healthy. Play all the back ups like a last preseason game. Activate practice squad and lets see Wims and the gang. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beardown3231 Posted December 10, 2018 Share Posted December 10, 2018 I think I have this right: *ahem* If Seattle wins tonight, the Bears win the NFCN if they win 1 of their final 3 games OR the Vikings lose 1 of their final 3 games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Put down the Pack for good, get to 10 wins and lock up the divsion. If somehow it ends up a 3 way tie at the top Bears and Saints get the byes. HFA would be a really weird tiebreaker scenario.

The NFC playoffs are essentially set, its just a matter of order between 4-5 and 5-6(dependent on outcome of tonight) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As I said, the Saints final few games aren't tough at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
