The Chicago Bears are set to take on the Buffalo Bills today in an NFL preseason matchup. Bears head coach Matt Eberflus has not yet announced whether 2024 NFL Draft first overall pick Caleb Williams will start in this game.
For fans looking to catch the Chicago Bears vs. Buffalo Bills game, it will take place on Saturday, August 10, 2024, at 1 p.m. ET (10 a.m. PT). The game will be broadcast on NFL Network and also available for streaming on platforms like Sling TV.
If you don’t have cable that carries NFL Network, watching the game is still feasible. Sling TV offers a cost-effective option for streaming this game and all major sporting events. To access NFL Network on Sling TV, a subscription to either the Orange or Blue tier is required, though the Orange + Blue tier is recommended for expanded coverage of NFL games this fall. The usual price for the Orange + Blue plan is $60 per month, but first-time subscribers can take advantage of a current promotion to get the first month for only $30. Alternatively, the Blue plan, which includes NBC and other channels, starts at $45 per month.
For those seeking additional savings, Sling TV also provides a Season Pass, where subscribers can prepay for four months of the Orange + Blue tier with the Sports Extra plan for a total of $219, down from the regular price of $300.
In addition to Sling TV, FuboTV is another excellent choice for streaming NFL games without cable.
