The Chicago Bears need a Christmas miracle to make the playoffs, and they have a winnable matchup in Week 16 to try and stay in the mix.
The Arizona Cardinals are coming to town in a battle of teams near the bottom of the NFC standings. While the Cards have been eliminated from postseason contention, the Bears are still mathematically alive.
Justin Fields and Co. enter the game at 5-9 on the year. They were a fingertip away from winning their Week 15 contest against the Cleveland Browns, but Darnell Mooney dropped what would have been a game-winning Hail Mary to give the Browns a 20-17 victory.
