The NFC kind of stinks this year, if we’re being honest. Outside of the Seahawks, Rams, Packers, and Buccaneers, there’s a whole lot of solid-to-bad football being played, even by teams who are winning games.
You won’t get a total reprieve from that tonight, but you will get two of the better teams in the NFC facing off, which is worth something. The Rams have been good-to-great this season thus far and have bounced back after a mediocre 2019, while the Bears have been winning in spite of seemingly having no business doing so and seem destined to ride that all the way into the postseason.
