See available tickets for the Bears/Eagles Sunday night game
The Bears will play the Eagles under the lights with a Sunday night game on November 22. This game will start at 7:20pm Chicago time. When I just checked the secondary market tickets for this game were unusually lower priced than normal. I assume this is just a fluke, because there is typically much more interest in a nationally televised night game than in a Sunday afternoon game. For the time being, you can actually find cheap seat tickets for under $90, but I expect that number to be more around $120 or $130 in the weeks leading up to the game. The better seats are selling for much, much more.
The Bears are 3-1 and thinking about the playoffs 1/4 of the way through the regular season, but ESPN still has them ranked only 14th on their weekly power rankings. That’s the worst ranking among 3-1 teams, and worse than several 2-1 teams and even the Packers, who are 2-2. I realize the Bears opponents (other than the Steelers) haven’t been given much credit this season, but I think we’ve got a pretty good team here.
The Lions 1 game winning streak will end this week with a 21 point loss to the Bears, according to a Madden simulation. Look for Devin Hester to finally figure things out as a wide receiver, accumulating over 100 yards and 2 touchdowns. Matt Stafford completes only 12 passes and throws 2 interceptions. Final score: Bears 28 Lions 7.
See available Bears vs. Cardinals tickets
I love it whenever the Bears play the Cardinals. I have friends who are Cardinals fans, and I’ll never let them forget that Bears comeback under the lights a few years back. The Cardinals come to Soldier Field on November 8. They might be the defending NFC champions, but expect the Bears to treat them like a nerd in high school gym class. Tickets for this game are reselling at about the usual prices, with lower-end seats going for about $105. Expect prices to increase with each passing week.
