I think at a minimum they are playing for the division week 17. They could easily lose their last 4 after this one.

Agreed. This was one you had to put in the win column

Bears need GB to not fire McCarthy.

Really concerned that this is the start of a three game losing streak

They're fine

SF should be a win, but it is on the road and they could be reeling at that point.

If they play like they did today, it’s a loss.

GO BEARS!!!

Giants and 49ers were their easy W's, already pissed one away.

Fuck Edwards and Zobrist

10-6
Playoffs.
Enjoy life.

They probably need just one win but Rams are good, Rodgers owns them and SF and Minn are on the road. SF should be a win but so should have this game.

I thought we have rams and packers next

They do. Could easily be three game losing streak heading into that game.

_________________

The only game left on the schedule where the Bears should be favored to win is @ the 49ers.

9-7 gets them in?

Bears will give the Rams a good game next week and then beat Green Bay.

They'll be at worst 10-6 and they are winning the division.

You don't think the Bears will be favored at home against the Packers?

Were they favored today? How’d that work out for them?

Meh, slow your role bud. The Bears can also beat every team left on the schedule too. Their defense is legit, and the offense is a different animal with (Pro Bowl QB) Trubisky running it. Nagy is also proving himself in his 1st year already as a Head Coach. He’s not afraid to take chances, and he can put together a game plan that confuses defenses. Not to mention, the Bears are legitimately one of the most talented teams in the NFL (feels weird saying that but it’s true). They’ve been in every single game they’ve played this year till the end -and won a few going away.


Of course, this is also a young team that still makes mistakes too. So nothing is a guarantee -but I think it’s crazy to think they’ll win only 1 more game.


I’m impressed with what I’ve seen so far this year. Not unimpressed.

Also.. the ViQueens and Packers are running on fumes this year. I don’t think getting into the playoffs this year will be a struggle at this point for the Bears..

Vikings will lose today and will lose at Seattle next week.

We weren't discussing if the Bears would cover the lines, just what games that they would be a favorite in the remainder of their games.

Now that you're clear on the topic, what games do you think will be the Bears be favorites in the last 4? I would guess SF and GB, clearly not the Rams and the Vikings game is too early to have a prediction.

Yep, Minnesota and Carolina were looking like the favorites for the wildcard spots just a week or two ago. Now, that game in Seattle looks like a playoff game between those two if there are any tie-breakers in play, and the Panthers are trending in the wrong direction.

Nope, playoffs are still a lock. Bad thought.

I’m clear on the topic. They were favored to win today and didn’t. Is that clear enough?

I would put the Bears playoff odds at around 25% after this loss.

Rams L, especially with rusty Mitch
Packers L, McCarthy gone
SF, 50/50...Nagy is an idiot what can I say
division comes down to Week 17 and the Bears are a mentally weak team

Were gonna beat the shit out of GB, we got the division.

9-7 will be good enough.

Vikings won’t win 3 of 4. They’ll probably lose next week @ SEA and the Dolphins game and the Bears will beat them too.

The Bears are going to the playoffs.
