NFL Playoff Scenarios: It is becoming quite evident that the Bears intend on playing their hearts out on Sunday. That would counter what other NFL teams that have clinched a playoff spot are doing. They are tasked with taking on the Green Bay Packers at Lambeau.
So far, Lovie Smith has inferred that the Bears are going for a win. The starters will be playing in order to maintain chemistry and counter any rust from setting in during their wild card bye week. This may be an interesting ploy. But it could also backfire immensely.
Lambeau Field will be frozen solid. Now imagine how many time Jay Cutler will be put to the pavement with a very inconsistent offensive line protecting him. The Bears may get the win and stay hot for the post season, but a concussion to Jay Cutler could derail as season they worked so hard to put together.
The smart money would be to play the starters for a half. That is what most elite contenders are doing going into week 17. The Bears may side step a potential land mine if they did the same.
