The Green Bay Packers are playing for more than rivalry bragging rights on Sunday when they head south to play the Chicago Bears.
A win ensures the NFC playoffs run through Lambeau Field for as long as the Packers keep winning. They are already on a five-game winning streak which started with a 41-25 win against the Bears at the end of November. The Packers saw A.J. Dillon run over the Tennessee Titans in their 40-14 win last week.
The Bears can clinch a playoff birth with a win on Sunday. They blew past the Jacksonville Jaguars as they continued their multi-game winning streak. After starting the season 5-1, the Bears lost their next six in a row before winning their last three games.
Both teams can still get what they want with a little help from other teams, but both teams control their own destiny with a win. Kickoff is set for 3:25 p.m. at Soldier Field.
