After getting blown out last Sunday night at Minnesota, the Bears needed a win today to have a realistic shot to win the division.
Luckily the Jacksonville Jaguars were at Soldier Field, because the Bears dominated the majority of the game in posting a 23-10 victory.
I actually didn’t even watch much of the game because I was so intrigued by the Lions-Vikings game. The Lions hung tough but could not pull off the upset as the Vikings prevailed 20-16. This is bad news for the Bears because the Vikings own the tiebreaker by way of a better conference record.
The defense dominated and held the Jaguars to 278 total yards of offense, with some of it coming in the 4th quarter when the Jaguars threw on every down.
Kyle Orton played a lot better than he did last week against Minnesota, going 20/34 for 219 yards and 2 TD’s.
The Bears now have a quick turnaround and host the Saints on Thursday night. Drew Brees and the Saints offense have been on a tear lately, so it will be a much tougher challenge than the Jaguars inept offense.
The Bears are going to need to win their final three games in order to win the division.

I agree the bears needed this one. I also agree the bears need to win those three. The Saints will be a tall task because the Bears defense needs to prove itself and stop a tough offense. I hope they can keep things going in the right direction.
Luckuy for the Bears they have an easier final three weeks than Minn. That being said I think we have to sweep in order to have any shot at the conference. If the 'Queens win 2 of the 3 final games then they clinch automatically. I'm more than a little worried that the Bears will have an early vacation for the second year in a row.
