Chicago Bears vs. Cleveland Browns way more meaningful than meets the eye

% of readers think this story is Fact. Add your two cents.


On the surface, Sunday’s Chicago Bears game against the Cleveland Browns might not carry as much playoff significance as last week’s game against the Green Bay Packers did or next week’s rematch in Soldier Field will, but it is still pivotal for head coach Ben Johnson’s club.

Beyond merely serving as a litmus test for how well Chicago can bounce back from a defeat that sank the Bears from the top seed in the NFC to the current No. 7 seed, a win would significantly boost their chances of eventually clinching a playoff berth.

According to NFL Media, the Bears currently have a 61% chance of making the postseason, but Sunday’s game carries some sneakily big consequences in Chicago’s playoff chase.

The ESPN Playoff Machine points out that a Bears loss would sink Chicago’s chances to just a 44.4% chance of a postseason return, while a victory would increase the Bears’ odds of making the playoffs to 68.8%, some significant leverage for an out-of-conference game.

Bears head coach Ben Johnson is confident that his team is adopting the right frame of mind, to bounce back from last Sunday’s disappointing loss to the Packers.

“We have another good opponent coming in, in Cleveland,” Johnson told reporters this week. “I don’t care what their record says. They have a damn good defense so that is kind of the stretch that we are in here this back half of the season. It is good defense after good defense after good defense and so we are going to have to step up to the plate and respond the right way.”
