The final regular season weekend for the NFL kicks off on Sunday (no Saturday or Monday night games). Please note that the Green Bay Packers vs. Chicago Bears game at Soldier Field has been moved from Noon (CT) to 3:25 p.m. (CT). The league wants the games with playoff implications to be played concurrently. As has been the case several times this season, the late time slot for the Packers means more viewers, but not everyone (see map #4 below).
The goal is this for Green Bay: beat the Bears to lock up the No. 1 NFC seed in the playoffs, meaning a first-round playoff bye, and the NFC road to the Super Bowl would go through Lambeau Field.
