NFL WEEK 11: CHICAGO BEARS VS. MINNESOTA VIKINGS — After having just one three-game winning streak during the Matt Eberflus era, Chicago’s football team is looking for its second three-game winning streak under the watchful eye of Ben Johnson in his first year as the Bears’ head coach. If they can pull it off, it will keep them in the thick of the playoff race.
WEEK 11 NOTEBOOK — GAME DAY EDITION
Earlier in the week, we took a look at the Bears’ playoff odds entering Week 11. While some forecasts doubt Chicago’s staying power in the picture, one prognostication paints a rosier picture. If you read Patrick’s Around The NFL post on Friday, then you’ve already seen this graphic. But if you didn’t, this will be eye-opening:

— Kirsten Tanis (@Kirsten_Tanis1) November 14, 2025A win pushes Chicago to 7-3 and could boost the team’s playoff probabilities to 66 percent with a win (along with some other things going their way). However, a loss that drops the squad’s record to 6-4 could cut the playoff odds to as low as 35 percent. This is a swing game. I hope this team is as ready for it as the rest of us.
