Bears vs Giants: Game Time, TV schedule, live stream, previews, and more

The Chicago Bears and the New York Giants, teams in the number three and number two TV markets respectively, will do battle on Sunday afternoon in a game that most of America won’t be able to watch. The Bears have 5 wins to New York’s 4, but with the Giants holding the Bears first round draft pick this spring, there will be no tanking from either franchise. Not that NFL teams willingly tank, but draft position is something fans are focused on this time of year, especially with two teams heading nowhere.

Here’s everything you need to know about the Bears vs Giants week 17 matchup.
