The Chicago Bears took a big step backwards on Sunday, suffering a loss to the Seattle Seahawks while the Green Bay Packers won over the Minnesota Vikings. So what does it all mean for the Bears?
For starters, the Packers are now in control of the NFC North, holding the tiebreaker with Chicago.
As far as the wild card goes, the Seahawks now hold the tiebreaker over both the Bears and the Packers, meaning if it comes down to it, the Bears would be either the division winner or fall all the way to the sixth seed in the playoffs and would have to travel to either Green Bay or New York in the Wild Card round.
The Bears also now have to win out in the division and beat Minnesota, Green Bay and Detroit in four weeks coming up to win the division and host a playoff game.
It wasn’t all bad for Chicago on Sunday, though. Brandon Marshall showed once again why he is a Pro Bowler and one of the best receivers in the NFL. Cutler showed that he can bring the Bears back in any game, and as long as he’s healthy, the Bears will have a shot at the NFC North divisional title.
In any game, there are winners and there are losers that emerge. Those winners and losers are all listed right here.
