Lions vs Bears Game: TV Channel, Time, Streaming Info Today
The Detroit Lions will be facing off against the Chicago Bears on Sunday afternoon at Soldier Field in Chicago for Week 16 of the 2024 NFL season. It’s a pivotal moment in the Lions’ journey this season, with some ups and downs along the way.
Last week, the Lions struggled against Josh Allen and the Bills, giving up 48 points and losing key players to serious injuries. Carlton Davis III, Alim McNeill, and David Montgomery were all hurt in the game, with McNeill confirmed to be out for the season. However, there’s hope for Montgomery (knee) and Davis (jaw) to make a return, though it might be a long shot. The Lions have work to do to secure the NFC North, despite their strong season so far.
The Lions are currently tied with the Philadelphia Eagles and Minnesota Vikings, but hold the tiebreaker if they finish with the same record. They’ll be visiting the Bears this week, then heading to California to face the 49ers, before closing out the season at home against the Vikings. Their win against the Vikings earlier in the season gives them an advantage if they can maintain their momentum.
Sunday’s game against the Bears will be a tough test for the Lions’ defense, especially with McNeill out. But the team is still determined with key players stepping up to fill in the gaps left by injuries.
You can catch the Lions vs. Bears game on Fox, with the game set to start at 1 p.m. ET. If you prefer to stream it, Fubo offers a live stream option. The radio broadcast will be available on WXYT-FM (97.1) in Detroit.
Predictions for the game lean towards the Lions taking the win, with the Bears struggling and the Lions looking to set a franchise record with their 13th win. The betting odds favor the Lions with a spread of -6½ points and an over/under of 48 points.
Injuries have taken a toll on the Lions this season, with several key players on injured reserve. This has tested the team’s depth and resilience, but they continue to push forward.
As the season nears its end, the Lions are focused on finishing strong and securing their spot in the playoffs. Stay tuned for more updates on their journey to the postseason.
