I don't think it's that likely the Bears and Lions end up tied. The Lions three toughest games remaining are all on the road. I don't see them beating NO or GB. Oakland might be a little easier but they'll likely have McFadden and other players back by then. Assuming they lose all three, that puts them at 9-7, and that's assuming they can beat a fiesty Chargers team and a Vikings team who will play them hard indoors. On the other side, it's still not out of the question for the Bears to end up 11-5. Hanie will have to make some plays and avoid the big mistakes for this to happen, but the Bears are superior to every team remaining on their schedule except GB.
