The (4-2) Chicago Bears face the (4-2) New England Patriots tonight, and could this be a Super Bowl preview? The Pats are the defending AFC champs, and the Bears lost a divisional-round heartbreaker last season. The current odds for each team to play in the Super Bowl are pretty decent too. There doesn't appear to be a juggernaut team in the early going of the NFL, so why not Bears vs Patriots in a rematch of SBXX?
