This Sunday the Chicago Bears will face the Green Bay Packers for the 182nd time in franchise history. With the winner going to the Super Bowl, the stakes are higher than ever. But after looking at the Bears' season, they should be grateful just to be there.
Take a look at their regular season. The Bears started the season with a win at home against the Lions, after the much discussed Calvin Johnson touchdown was overturned as the clock ran out. They followed up with a win over the struggling Cowboys in week 2, beat the Panthers in week 5, the Bills on a neutral site in week 8, the Dolphins week 10, the Lions in week 12, and the Vikings (outside, without Brett Favre or Adrian Peterson) in week 15.
