The Chicago Bears are NFC North division winners for 2025.
Malik Willis deserves to be a starter somewhere.
Derrick Henry carried the Ravens to the win with 200+ yards and four touchdowns.
But most importantly the Packers lost... again.

(893 posts)The Packers are in the playoffs as the 7th seed. Nothing can change that. Packers should rest as many players as they can in the hopes of winning game one of the playoffs on the road against the 2nd seed. Which could be the Bears, the Rams, the Seahawks, the Niners, and possibly (but probably not) the Eagles.

Don't know about those other 2 games, but definitely the Bears game.
So I'd guess what you heard is accurate.

(75,852 posts)...their injuries being season delaying, not ending.
As the weeks went on, they got guys back on both sides of the ball who were hurt early.
They kind of learned to win, then got players back!
The opposite of what you're talking about.

(22,580 posts)But Micah Parsons and Tucker Kraft are unfortunately out for the season.

(75,852 posts)That was non--contact, wasn't it? That's tough to take.
Johnson & Edward's are both finally playing. A couple of the best defensive players on the team missed 9 & 11 games but are back now.
