Bears will play 6 games against current playoff teams in 2020

The Chicago Bears will play six games against current playoff teams in the 2020 season, including two games each against NFC North rivals. The Bears are tied for the second-most such games, along with the Houston Texans and Detroit Lions.

The Jacksonville Jaguars and Indianapolis Colts, both Bears opponents in 2020, are tied for the most with seven games.

Not that it means anything in the grand scheme of things in 2020, considering that history shows many of these 2019 playoff teams won’t make the postseason next year.

But, for fun, let’s take a look at those games:

  • Green Bay Packers (2 games)
  • Minnesota Vikings (2 games)
  • Houston Texans (1 game)
  • Tennessee Titans (1 game)

The Bears will also face the recently-ousted New Orleans Saints, who lost to the Vikings in the wild-card round.

While Chicago has struggled to beat Green Bay — losing 16 of their last 20 games in the last decade against the Packers — they’ve won four straight against the Vikings, including back-to-back season sweeps.
