The 1941 National Football League (NFL) playoffs occurred after the conclusion of the regular season to determine the champion of the 1941 NFL season. At the conclusion of the regular season, there was a tie for the Western Division championship between the Chicago Bears and Green Bay Packers, requiring an unscheduled one-game playoff, making this the debut edition of the NFL playoffs. The two teams had finished the regular season with identical 10–1 records and had split their season series. The teams had developed a rivalry; the Bears were defending league champions and the Packers had won the NFL title in 1939.
The Divisional championship game was played on December 14 at Wrigley Field. The winner then hosted the New York Giants (8–3) on December 21 in the NFL Championship Game.
