This season hasn’t gone the way anyone envisioned it — unless you count Sports Illustrated that predicted a 7-9 season for the reigning NFC North champs. That all comes to an end following Sunday’s season finale against the Vikings, where the Bears will miss the playoffs one year after hosting a Wild Card playoff game.

While a victory won’t erase the failures of this season, it’d be nice for this team to go out on a high note as they enter one of the most important offseasons in recent history.
