You can catch Sunday afternoon’s game between the Philadelphia Eagles and the Chicago Bears from Lincoln Financial Field on television, radio and online, and we’ve got the information on how you can do so.

There isn’t much of a history between the Chicago Bears and the Philadelphia Eagles, but there is, indeed, a history. Sure, these two proud franchises have only met 43 times, with the Bears coming out on the winning side on 29 of those meetings. Still, the mention of Chicago and Philadelphia brings up certain memories.

There have been common coaches and players, Buddy Ryan and Jim McMahon. There have been strange occurrences, like fogs descending on playoff games. Then, there was the time one of Chicago’s own, Donovan McNabb, went home in a playoff game to embarrass the team hailing from the city he grew up in. Believe it or not, Chi Town has taken four of the last seven games against Philly, but things feel like they should go in Philly’s favor this time around.

This is a game the Eagles should win.

Here’s how you can access Sunday afternoon’s game:
