Bears playoff situation

Ladies and Gentlemen, it is playoff time for the Bears, the first time since their '07 Super Bowl run. The Bears are the #2 NFC seed heading into the postseason, which means they get a first round bye and home-field advantage over every NFC team except Atlanta, the #1 seed. The Bears will host their first game on Sunday, January 16, at Noon. The opponent in that game is undecided, but it will be either the Eagles, Seahawks, or Saints.

The Bears are going to have a tough time getting to the Super Bowl, having to get passed some teams that looked weak early, but came back big, like the Eagles and Saints. The Falcons are also a big challenge, as they have shown that they can do a lot of damage.

Overall, however, any team could go to Dallas. The Falcons look to be dominant, but New Orleans has already beaten them once, and Green Bay nearly beat them. It will be interesting to see how things go.
