With their 24-20 win over the Lions in Detroit on Thanksgiving, the Chicago Bears have improved to 6-6 on the season.
And more importantly, they are keeping their playoff hopes alive.
The Bears are currently in eighth place in the NFC playoff picture and FiveThirtyEight gives them a four-percent chance to make the postseason.
Not great odds, but two weeks ago the Bears were 4-6 and we thought they were out of it. If Minnesota, Seattle or Green Bay starts to falter, Chicago is still there with four games left.
The problem for the Bears, though, is their remaining schedule.
Chicago closes the season out against a desperate Dallas team in Chicago, at Green Bay, home against the Chiefs and in Minnesota against the Vikings to close out the season.
A Bears loss to the Cowboys next week would put their odds back to less than one percent.
