Chicago Bears see Rams make Matthew Stafford announcement ahead of NFC Divisional round
The Chicago Bears took great pride in knocking the hated Green Bay Packers out of the NFL Playoffs on Saturday night. Despite trailing 21-6 entering the fourth quarter, Chicago was able to outscore Green Bay 25-6 in the final period, clinching an iconic 31-27 victory and a showdown with the Los Angeles Rams in the NFC Divisional Round.
Both the Bears and Rams finished the 2025 NFL regular season with 12-5 records, but Chicago will host the game due to winning the NFC North and being the second-seed in the conference while Los Angeles is the fifth seed after finishing behind the Seattle Seahawks in the NFC West.
And, interestingly, they will be facing some familiar foes in this next matchup.
The Chicago Bears will indeed face Matthew Stafford when they play the Los Angeles Rams

One player that Bears fans will be familiar with on the Los Angeles roster is former Packers wide receiver Davante Adams, who led the NFL in touchdown receptions this year in his first season with the Rams. They will hope to contain him better than the Carolina Panthers could, as Adams had five receptions for 72 yards in Los Angeles’ Wild Card win.
But in that win, Rams fans became concerned with their quarterback, former Detroit Lions star Matthew Stafford, who appeared to injure his hand during the game.
It was revealed on Monday that Stafford had sprained the index finger on his throwing hand, but that he will be able to play against Chicago in the NFC Divisional round:
Sean McVay said Matthew Stafford sprained his index finger on his throwing hand but will be good to go against the Bears on Sunday.

In 22 games against the Bears in his career (20 of which came as the Lions quarterback), Stafford is 12-10. He has a passer rating of 88.5 in those games to go with 5,895 passing yards, 35 touchdowns, and 24 interceptions.
