The Los Angeles Rams and Chicago Bears are set to face off in what could be one of the coldest NFL playoff games in recent memory. Forecasters predict temperatures near 2 degrees Fahrenheit at Soldier Field, a stark contrast for the Rams' Los Angeles-based roster. The Bears, however, are accustomed to the brutal Soldier Field cold.

While frigid, the upcoming game likely won't crack the top five coldest postseason contests. The record remains the 1967 "Ice Bowl" in Green Bay, where temperatures hit minus 13. The 1982 "Freezer Bowl" in Cincinnati was even colder by wind chill, at minus 59, severely impacting the warm-weather Chargers.

Historically, extreme cold favors teams acclimated to it, often disrupting passing games and ball security. The Bears' history in the cold gives them a potential edge, but the Rams' playoff experience could mitigate the weather's impact. All eyes will be on which team adapts better to the elements.
