Overview
- The Green Bay Packers are fixed in the NFC’s No. 7 slot and will open the playoffs on the road against the No. 2 seed.
- Green Bay will face the Bears if Chicago wins or if Philadelphia loses to Washington, while a Bears loss coupled with an Eagles win would send the Packers to Philadelphia.
- The Bears have already secured the NFC North and take the No. 2 seed with a win over the Lions.
- Chicago would drop to the No. 3 seed with a loss if the Eagles reach 12-5, drawing either the Rams or 49ers depending on the Rams-Cardinals result.
- Philadelphia has indicated it will rest starters against Washington, a choice that factors into Chicago’s seeding scenarios.
