According to NFL.com, the Bears currently have a 79 percent chance of making the playoffs. If Chicago beats Green Bay, that jumps to 95 percent. But if the Bears get swept by the Packers, it falls to 61 percent. Assuming Chicago takes care of business against Green Bay, there's a likelihood they could earn a postseason berth by Week 16's end.

The Green Bay Packers are officially headed to the postseason after the Minnesota Vikings upset Detroit on Christmas.

With the third straight loss for the Detroit Lions, the Green Bay Packers clinched at least a wild-card spot and still could catch the Chicago Bears for the NFC North title.

Should the Detroit Lions rest their key starters, play for pride, or some combination of both in Week 18 vs. the Bears?
