The Bears have a short week to get ready for the best team in the NFC.
They’ll hold a walk-through on Wednesday, less than 48 hours removed from their loss to the Vikings on “Monday Night Football.” The Bears will have a walk-through on Thursday, too.
It’s the first of two unusual weeks’ worth of preparation for the Bears. After hosting the Lions at Soldier Field on Sunday, they’ll host the Seahawks on Thursday, Dec. 26.
Bears interim head coach Thomas Brown will address the media on Wednesday, followed by quarterback Caleb Williams.
The Lions are coming off a 48-42 home loss to the Bills last week, just their second defeat of the season. They lost running back David Montgomery, a former Bears player, to a season-ending knee injury during that game.
The Lions lead the NFC and would receive a first-round bye in the playoffs were the season to end today. The Vikings, though, control their own destiny — if they win out, they’ll win the NFC North. The Lions and Vikings are two of three NFC teams to have clinched a playoff berth.
