The Classic TV Experience: Where to Find Bears Games on Cable
For many of us, the familiar comfort of cable TV is still the go-to option for watching our favorite teams.

The primary channels to watch the Bears on include: — Lisandra Lizama OnlyFans: Your Ultimate Guide
- CBS: The Bears often play games on CBS, especially those against other teams in the NFC. Games on CBS are usually broadcast on Sunday afternoons. So, make sure you have CBS in your channel lineup. This is a must-have for catching a large portion of the season's action.
- FOX: Similar to CBS, FOX is another key network for Bears games, particularly those against NFC opponents. FOX games also usually air on Sunday afternoons. Double-check your local listings to see if your game is on FOX.
- NBC: Sunday Night Football on NBC is a prime-time viewing experience. If the Bears are scheduled for a Sunday night game, you'll know where to tune in. This offers the best viewing experience with high-quality production and commentary.
- ESPN/ABC: For Monday Night Football, ESPN is your home. A few Bears games might also appear on ABC, particularly if there's a special occasion or double-header. Make sure to keep ESPN and ABC in your channel guide to watch them live.
Make sure you have a cable package that includes these major networks. Also, remember that game times and channels can vary depending on the week and the specific matchups. Local listings are your best friend here. Check your local TV listings (e.g., on your cable provider's website or TV guide) to confirm the channel and time for each game. The official Chicago Bears website and NFL.com are also great resources for the latest schedule updates.
Keep in mind that blackout restrictions are less common now than in the past, but they could still apply depending on your location and the specific broadcast agreements. However, if you have cable, these networks are your key to a season of Bears football.
Streaming Services: Your Guide to Watching Bears Games Online
Alright, cord-cutters and tech-savvy fans, it's time to talk about streaming services! In today's digital age, streaming offers fantastic flexibility and convenience. You can watch games on your phone, tablet, smart TV, or computer, from almost anywhere. Here are some of the top streaming options for catching the Bears games:
- NFL+: This is the NFL's official streaming service. It offers live local and primetime regular season games on your phone and tablet. For those wanting full-game replays, it's a great option. Also, the platform offers audio coverage of every game.
- Paramount+: Since CBS broadcasts many Bears games, Paramount+ is a great option. If you have a Paramount+ subscription, you will have access to all the CBS games live. So, with this you can be sure you will not miss out on the games on CBS.
- YouTube TV, Hulu + Live TV, Sling TV, and FuboTV: These are all live TV streaming services that carry the major networks (CBS, FOX, NBC, ESPN, ABC), allowing you to watch games as they air on TV. These services require a subscription, but they provide a comprehensive way to stream all the major channels without needing a cable subscription. Prices and channel lineups vary, so compare the options to see which one best fits your needs.
- DAZN: DAZN holds the rights to broadcast NFL games in various regions outside the United States. So, if you're traveling abroad or live in a region where DAZN has the rights, this could be a good option for watching the Bears.
When choosing a streaming service, consider factors like:
- Channel availability: Does the service carry all the channels you need (CBS, FOX, NBC, ESPN, ABC)?
- Price: Compare subscription costs and any additional fees.
- Compatibility: Can you stream on your preferred devices (smart TV, phone, tablet, etc.)?
- Features: Do you want DVR capabilities, multiple streams, or other extras?
Free Options to Watch the Bears
For the budget-conscious fan, there are a few free options to catch some Bears action. Keep in mind that these options may have limitations or require some creative maneuvering:
- Over-the-air (OTA) antenna: If you live within range of a local broadcast tower, you can use an OTA antenna to watch games on CBS, FOX, and NBC for free. This is a one-time purchase, and it can be a great way to access games without a cable or streaming subscription. You'll need to set up the antenna and scan for channels. The quality of the signal can vary based on your location and antenna setup, but it's worth a shot.
- Free trials: Many streaming services offer free trials. You could potentially use these trials to watch a few Bears games, but be sure to cancel before the trial period ends to avoid being charged.
- Radio broadcasts: While you can't see the game, listening to the radio broadcast is a classic option for following the action. The Bears' flagship radio station broadcasts every game, and you can often find it online or through a radio app. This is perfect for when you're on the go or can't access a TV or streaming service.
