It’s time. The Green Bay Packers Justin McCray Color Rush Jersey , with their playoff hopes on life support but still certainly breathing, are at Soldier Field this afternoon to play the NFC North-leading Chicago Bears in week 15.Aaron Rodgers who got the last laugh. After leaving with a knee injury in the second quarter, Rodgers returned after halftime and led a furious comeback in the fourth quarter as the Packers won a 24-23 thriller on Sunday night.Since then, however, the teams have moved in opposite directions. The 9-4 Bears can clinch the NFC North title with a victory today, while likely eliminating the Packers from playoff contention at the same time. Meanwhile, a Packers win keeps them alive in the hunt for the postseason https://www.thepackersfanshop.com/Marwin-Evans-Jersey , though they will still need help. Green Bay could still be alive if they lose today, but in that case they would need to see the Minnesota Vikings lose to the Miami Dolphins to keep them afloat.Get ready for today’s contest with our Game Primer, and keep it here to follow along and discuss the game.Game Updates from APC StaffA Twitter List by acmepackingco Game Updates from Packers MediaA Twitter List by TexWestern Halfway through the 2018 season, the 6-2 Carolina Panthers looked like a sure-fire playoff team and perhaps a squad that could compete with the New Orleans Saints for the NFC South title. Two games between the two teams in the final 14 days of the season seemed like a tantalizing finish to the year in that division.Fast-forward to today and the Panthers are losers of five straight games, sitting at 6-7 and on the verge of nixing their playoff hopes entirely. Suddenly, they need a win over the Saints at home to just keep any realistic playoff hopes alive. That streak did feature four road games, but there were winnable contests against Detroit, Tampa Bay Jermaine Whitehead Jersey , and Cleveland in that span.Christian McCaffrey has been a hugely productive player, with over 1,600 yards from scrimmage including a 100-100 game (rushing and receiving) against Seattle three weeks back, but the Carolina offense has scored more than 21 points just once in their losing streak. The Saints would surely love nothing more tonight than to put their divisional rivals’ playoff hopes on life support while taking another big step towards home-field advantage in the NFC. They can clinch that status with two wins out of their last three games, thanks to a head-to-head win over the second-place Rams.Tune in tonight for this game as we close the book on week 15.WHO?New Orleans Saints (11-2) vs. Carolina Panthers (6-7)WHEN?Monday, December 17th, 20188:15 PM Eastern TimeWHERE?Bank of America StadiumCharlotte, North CarolinaHOW?TV Broadcast: ESPNOnline Streaming: ESPN.com or ESPN appCommentators: Joe Tessitore Aaron Ripkowski Color Rush Jersey , Jason Witten, Anthony McFarland, Lisa SaltersRadio Broadcast: Westwood One SportsANYTHING ELSE?OddsSaints favored by 6.5 pointsOver/under total: 51.52017 GamesWeek 3 2017: Saints 34, @Panthers 13Week 13 2017: @Saints 31, Panthers 212017 Wild Card: @Saints 31, Panthers 26All-Time Head-to-Head RecordRegular Season: Panthers lead 24-22-0Playoffs: Saints lead 1-0
