Interesting prop bet: Rodgers and Tua each run for 10+ yards.

That is a fancy way of saying Detroit won't be in the Playoffs.

While Detroit might likely beat Pittsburgh, they won't be beating the Bears, and the Bears won't be losing 2 of their last 3 teams.

DET could beat all three. MINN is playing tough. PITT looks to have nothing but grit. CHI? Maybe close to DET?

Bears could lose to GB but GB did just get banged up. So did LAR vs DET.

Playoff Clinching Scenario: The Bears can clinch a playoff spot in Week 16 if they defeat the Packers and the Lions lose to the Steelers.
A win over the Packers would also give them a chance to take the NFC North lead, especially if the Lions lose.
Current Standings: The Bears are tied with the 49ers for the top wild card spot in the NFC, but San Francisco holds the tiebreaker due to conference record.
The Bears are currently second in the NFC playoff picture with a 10-4 record.
Final Three Games: The Bears face a challenging stretch: a home game against the Packers (9-4-1), a road game against the 10-4 49ers, and a potential winner-take-all Week 18 matchup against the 8-6 Lions.
Playoff Odds: As of December 15-16, 2025, the Bears have a 74% to 85% probability of making the playoffs according to major models.
The New York Times projects a 97% chance if they beat the Packers.
Division Title Possibility: Winning the NFC North is still possible, but would require a victory over the Packers and either a win over the 49ers or a Lions loss.
The Bears currently have a 27% chance of winning the division after their Week 15 win.
Potential First-Round Opponent: If the Bears make the playoffs, their most likely first-round opponent is the Packers, either at Soldier Field or Lambeau Field.

Well the great thing about this season is that the outcome is likely to be a surprise except we know KC won't be in the game. All this season, good teams have spiraled down while bad teams have struggled up as other teams can't decide whether they are good or bad, factor in sudden injuries like that of Mahomes, and all bets are off, except, everyone agrees that neither the Browns nor Raiders are work a ****.

My eyes are on these teams:

AFC: Bills, Pats, Broncos.

NFC: Bears, Rams, Seahawks.

I lost track. Are the Lions alive? They played LAR pretty good and still lost. LA was unbelievable good when needed.

DET was passing a lot start to finish. I don't remember any big runs?

Lions will probably get a wild card. The Rams look like a Super Bowl winner to me assuming Stafford stays healthy.

I won a lot of bets using KC before this year. They have been my favorite since the league gave NE the AFC championship game at KC. Phony Roughing passer call by KC gave NE the lead. Then miracle Chiefs tied it up to get to OT!!!!

But, Mahomes never got to touch the ball. Brady got NE to a FG? UGH!


Then DET was my favorite. But on TDAY, GB beat them senseless? UGH! Nearly out now.

Buffalo I guess? Two surprise wins last two weeks. They deserve a SB win for wide right.

JKVILLE is doing better under a new coach. Bad start but good nnow?

HOU may be the best overall AFC team right now?

GB was going good but got bandged up?

LAR are elite. PHI is not dead aret they?

I've never liked Buffalo and they are a team with major issues, but don't take your eye off of them yet. OK, they don't have a great defense, but their QB knows how to put points up on the board, a lot of points.
