According to NBC Sports, the Bears have not won a primetime game on the network since all the way back in the 2018 season, a run that has seen the team lose 11 consecutive games on NBC’s airwaves. In fact, the Bears’ last victory on NBC came during the 2018 season when they beat the Los Angeles Rams 15-6 in Week 14 of the season. Since then, the Bears have had some truly painful losses, and it all kicked off in the NFC Wild Card Round of that season when Cody Parkey’s infamous “double-doink” cost the Bears a game against the Philadelphia Eagles at Soldier Field. The Bears’ most recent game on NBC came in the NFC Divisional Round last season when they lost to the Rams in overtime at Soldier Field, ending their season. Ben Johnson and the Bears will hope to end that streak on Sunday night, with kickoff at Soldier Field set for 7:15 p.m. This article tagged under: Chicago Bears
