Thread: Chicago Bears' 2012/2013 Schedule

Then can you see us as a possible 14-2 squad rather than 13-3? In one of these threads, I put my predictions, but I can't recall which one...I think it was the one about season predictions.

I remember reading somewhere that a team can only have 6 prime time games in a season, so with 5 games already solidified that leaves just one possible game moving to Sunday night.

Out of those games it would most likely be home vs Packers or away against the Lions depending if they have playoff implications.

The Packers game in December, especially if the Bears are as good as we think they are capable of being and the Packers are as good as they have been the past three seasons, will probably be FOX's Game of the Week, so I would highly doubt that they'll move that one to a night game especially since the first game is being televised in prime time. The same goes for the Lions game. I think the most likely of those two teams that we might see on prime time this season for a second time on NBC Sunday Night Football would be the Packers simply because of the history and tradition that encompasses the rivalry.

I remember. I can't blame them too much because they aren't used to getting wins so they certainly don't know how to act like it. After being the worst team in the league for many years they probably feel as if they have earned the right to talk trash. Doesn't bother me. Raiders fans talk trash too but they've got nothing to celebrate except being famous for being the worst fans. Detroit fans want that title, it seems.
