While we await the Bears and Vikings outdoor game tomorrow night, today there's plenty of other NFL action -- four games, including three day games and the usual NBC night game -- and the Blackhawks also playing tonight.
↵↵12 noon, Fox-32: NFL, Eagles at Giants. This is one that Bears fans should pay close attention to, as the winner of this game has a leg up on the NFC East title. The other will have a good shot at a wild card -- and the Bears have the tiebreaker over the Eagles, but not over the Giants.
↵↵12 noon, CBS-2: NFL, Jaguars at Colts. Would you have guessed that in Week 15, the Colts would have to win just to tie the Jaguars for first in the AFC South?
↵↵1 p.m., Big Ten Network: Women's college basketball, Northern Arizona at Northwestern.
↵↵3 p.m., Big Ten Network: Men's college basketball, South Carolina State at Indiana.
↵↵3:15 p.m., CBS-2: NFL, Jets at Steelers. Two weeks ago, the Jets looked like a good bet to win this game. Instead, they are fighting for their playoff lives.
↵↵6 p.m., WGN (Chicago only): Blackhawks vs. Kings at the United Center.
↵↵7 p.m., NBC-5: NFL, Packers at Patriots. Another game for Bears fans to watch; Aaron Rodgers is definitely out, which makes the Pats overwhelming favorites. If the Packers lose, the Bears can clinch the NFC North with a win Monday night in Minnesota.
