head down to the Big Easy to take on the New Orleans Saints (-8.5). In an alternate universe, this game would have implications for the wild card as the Saints currently sit at 4-4, tied with Minnesota for the final NFC playoff spot. The Bears, unfortunately, have not held up their end of the bargain, entering this one at 2-6 with a back up quarterback and a coaching staff on the hot seat.
Things have not gone well for the Bears against the Saints recently. And when I say recently, I mean they have lost their last seven contests against the Saints, including the last three in NOLA.
