Can All 4 NFC North Teams Make Playoffs? | Chicago Bears News

Could all four NFC North teams make the playoffs in 2026? It’s a wild thought — and maybe even more plausible than you think. Last season, every team in the division finished with a winning record for the first time since 1994, proving the talent is there, especially with Caleb Williams leading the Bears. But don’t get too excited: the NFC West is stacked with elite contenders like the Rams, Seahawks, and 49ers, and only seven playoff spots exist in the NFC. Plus, the NFC North’s toughest schedule makes it nearly impossible for all four to survive — unless some NFC West giants stumble. Realistically? Two or three from the North might sneak in, but four? That’s a long shot. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
