Not gonna lie, before the season started, I was just hoping the Chicago Bears would be playing some meaningful football in November, because it’s been a while since we’ve experienced that. I never imagined that the Chicago Bears would enter December as the NUMBER ONE SEED IN THE NFC!
With the Carolina Panthers’ 31-28 win over the Los Angeles Rams earlier today, the Bears have moved into the top seed due to a better Conference record.
Here’s how the top of the conference looks right now. We’ll update the standings as the games conclude.
