The (11-4) Chicago Bears get a cold-weather respite for their next game, but they have to fly out west to do so. On Sunday night, December 28, the Bears will be at Levi\u2019s Stadium to take on the (10-4) San Francisco 49ers. The early weather look-ahead calls for a high of 51 and a low of 42 with no rain in the forecast.<\/p>\n

That sounds like perfect football weather to me.<\/p>\n

The \u2018Niners don\u2019t play this week\u2019s game until tomorrow on Monday Night Football against the Indianapolis Colts, but they\u2019ve won four straight and, like the Bears, have clinched a playoff berth. Even though San Francisco is currently third in the NFC West, if they beat the Colts, they still have a shot at the division lead and the NFC\u2019s number one seed.<\/p>\n

The Bears are still battling for the NFC North\u2019s top spot and the number one seed, so bottom line, there\u2019s a lot for the Bears and 49ers to play for. I\u2019d expect another playoff-like atmosphere in California.<\/p>\n

According to our partners at FanDuel Sportsbook<\/a>, the Bears are a 2.5-point underdog, with the point total over\/under at 50.5.<\/p>\n

The Bears are coming off an emotional win over the Packers on Saturday night, but they\u2019ll have an extra day to prep for the game. While the \u2018Niners will be on a short week after playing in Indy.<\/p>\n
