New users can claim the latest BetMGM Illinois bonus code SBWIRE and unlock up to $1,500 in first-bet offer bonuses for Week 16 of the 2023 NFL season.
According to the New York Times' NFL playoff simulator, the Chicago Bears enter the NFL's Week 16 schedule with a 2 percent chance to make the playoffs. So, yes, we're saying there's a chance. But their unlikely road to the postseason must begin with a win over the Arizona Cardinals Sunday at Soldier Field. If you're buying the Bears as 4.5-point favorites, then click one of the BET NOW buttons on this page to claim one of the best Illinois sportsbook promos, and grab a first bet protected up to $1,500.
The Bears could easily sweep their final three regular-season games against the Cardinals, Atlanta Falcons and Green Bay Packers and finish with an 8-9 record. They've shown they have the upside to beat almost any team.
Alas, they've also shown the ability to fall apart down the stretch – as they did last week against the Cleveland Browns and earlier in the year versus the Denver Broncos and Detroit Lions – so it's painful to put too much faith and hope in Matt Eberflus, Justin Fields and the rest.
