The Chicago Bears could punch their ticket to the playoffs on Sunday Night as they face off against the Philadelphia Eagles.
The game, which was originally slated for a noon kickoff at Lincoln Financial Field, was flexed to Sunday Night Football.
The Eagles lost their opportunity to play for a divisional title earlier Sunday after the Dallas Cowboys knocked off the Washington Redskins, but a Chicago win would take the Bears into the playoffs after late losses by both the Detroit Lions and Green Bay Packers Sunday.
