Why Bears Playing Starters Vs. Detroit Is The Right Call — Especially For Caleb Williams

The Chicago Bears won’t be able to get the #1 seed in the playoffs this year. Their loss to the San Francisco 49ers in that wild shootout made that clear. Now, fans and media are debating the obvious question. Should the team rest their starters in the season finale against the Detroit Lions? They’re already guaranteed a home game in the playoffs as NFC North champions. It feels like there won’t be much difference between the #2 seed and the #3 seed aside from determining who they play in the wild card round.
