Chicago Bears 2024 Schedule Unveiled: Key Matchups, Prime-Time Games, and Tough Stretches Revealed

The Chicago Bears have announced their 2024 season schedule, with several key matchups, prime-time games, and tough stretches in store for fans. Head coach Matt Eberflus will lead the Bears in an exciting season that includes games against AFC South opponents and division rivals.

The season kicks off with a home game at Soldier Field, where rookie quarterback Caleb Williams will make his debut against the Tennessee Titans. Safety Kevin Byard will face his former team in what promises to be an exciting matchup.

Chicago’s bye week is set for Week 7, coming after a London game against the Jaguars and before road games against the Commanders and Cardinals. The early bye week provides a natural break for the team.

The Bears are scheduled for three prime-time games in 2024, including matchups on Thursday, Sunday, and Monday nights. The team will also play the Lions on Thanksgiving and the Jaguars in London in Week 6.

Chicago will face back-to-back road games three times this season, with stretches away from Soldier Field testing the team’s resilience. The Bears won’t play a home game for an entire month during the middle of the season.

Divisional matchups won’t come until Week 11 for the Bears, with six games against NFC North rivals in the final eight weeks of the season. Tough stretches include facing the Packers, Vikings, and Lions in consecutive weeks, including a Thanksgiving matchup in Detroit.

For the second year in a row, the Bears will close out the season against the Packers at Lambeau Field in Week 18. The game could have significant playoff implications, adding to the excitement of the matchup.
