So with this win what does this do for WC chances?

Bears still have to win out, and hope for some help with the Vikes and the Rams dropping a couple.

The Chargers loss really hurts.

The Chargers loss really hurts.

So does the Rams loss. They could get knocked out of the wildcard due to a h2h loss to them.

They had 3 winnable games vs. The Raiders/Chargers/Rams and failed in all 3. If they won 2 of them, they'd be right there for the division with GB. Packers game in September was an epic failure as well.

This reads like a BWC post

Rams still have to play the Seahawks and the 49ers, hell even the Cowboys if you wanna toss them in there as a semi tough-ish matchup.. not worried about them.

Vikings on the other hand are the real problem. I only see one maybe loss (Packers) before they play us the final game of the season. Hopefully the Chargers, who are the definition of a jekyll and hyde team, show up and beat them. I can't see them losing to the Lions.

Lol. It just sucks.

It does, but it's accurate.

Bears still have to win the last 3. It's a tall order.

The Vikings always find ways to disappoint their fanbase though. Colleague of mine lives up there in Minneapolis and it drives him nuts.

That all depends on the Vikings and Rams actually.

It would be a very Vikings thing to do to lay an egg against Detroit.

No shit. I already said that I highly doubt they'll make the playoffs, but it isn't as daunting as it once was. Packers will be tough but they'll definitely be motivated for that one. Chiefs is the one game that I don't think we'll have a chance to win even though Chiefs D is terrible.

I just can't see them losing to Detroit. But hey... the Dolphins beat the Eagles just last week so you never know anymore.

Mahomes has been human this year. He's struggled against top defenses.

Vikings and Rams lose the next two and the Bears win one, and they'll jump both.

I mean, it's a long shot, but it's possible.

Granted it was in Detroit, but the Bears almost laid an egg against them.

He's been human because he is still playing on essentially one leg (and had a bad ankle injury prior to that).

They'll pass the Rams. That's my prediction. I don't think they'll pass Minnesota. Hope they prove me wrong though (and Minnesota proves they still choke).

 

[ChiHawks10]

The fact that Dallas probably wins their division with a sub-500 record is ridiculous. Lol.

 

[Kaners Bald Spot]

He's been human because he is still playing on essentially one leg (and had a bad ankle injury prior to that).

I know. He has to have surgery at the conclusion of the season, IIRC. He didn't play all that well vs. The Raiders, their D won that game for them with 2 pick sixes.

 

[ChiHawks10]

It would be epic if that wildcard spot comes down to the final game against Minnesota. Win and in for both teams.

The Bears D owns Cousins.

Minny had to win week 17 to make it last year, and the Bears were playing for nothing. The Bears dominated.
