Aaron Rodgers will try to get the Packers back on track on "Sunday Night Football" in Week 12 against the struggling Bears.
Green Bay is coming off a tough loss in overtime to the Colts in Week 11, while Chicago is coming off a bye. But after starting the season red hot, the Bears have dropped to a 5-5 record and are showing no signs of righting the ship. Mitchell Trubisky got hurt a few weeks ago, Nick Foles got hurt in Week 9 and neither looked like the QB answer for Chicago when healthy anyway.

With this game played at Lambeau Field, the Bears are looking at being heavy underdogs and having to pull a prime-time upset like they did earlier this season against the Buccaneers to have any hope of fixing their season before it falls into total disarray.
Below is more about the matchup, plus everything to know about how to watch "Sunday Night Football."
Who plays on 'Sunday Night Football' tonight?
- Matchup: Chicago Bears at Green Bay Packers
- Location: Lambeau Field
Don't worry about one thing: Lambeau Leaps have still been a thing this season, even with no fans to leap into. And from a health standpoint, it's probably good that NFL players aren't leaping into fans.
At the end of November, this could be a cold one at Lambeau, although the heating underneath the field will at least help the players on the field from getting too incredibly cold. Expect the big jackets on the sideline to keep the players warm, though.
What time is the NFL game tonight?
- Date: Sunday, Nov. 29
- Kickoff time: 8:20 p.m. ET
All "Sunday Night Football" games in 2020 have the same set start time of 8:20 p.m. ET. There are Sunday night games scheduled for every week of the season except Week 17, though the NFL has the ability to flex a game into a Week 17 SNF window.
While the start times for all "Sunday Night Football" games in 2020 will go unchanged, the matchups might be tweaked.
The NFL has a flex scheduling procedure that allows for "quality matchups on Sunday night in those weeks and give surprise teams a chance to play their way onto primetime." Here are the key rules for flex scheduling:
— Begins Sunday of Week 5 and in effect during Weeks 5-17
— Up to two games may be flexed into Sunday night between Weeks 5-10
— Only Sunday afternoon games are subject to being moved into the Sunday night window
— The game that has been tentatively scheduled for Sunday night during flex weeks will be listed at 8:15 p.m. ET
— The announcement will come no later than 12 days prior to the game
What channel is Packers vs. Bears on tonight?
- TV channel: NBC
- Live stream: fuboTV | DAZN (in Canada)
All "Sunday Night Football" games in 2020 will broadcast live on NBC. The network's TV rights deal with the NFL gives it all "Sunday Night Football" games as well as the annual Thursday night season-opener, and NBC is given a spot in the Super Bowl broadcast rotation.
NBC's team of announcers features play-by-play man Al Michaels, analyst Cris Collinsworth and sideline reporter Michele Tafoya. However, Michaels this season will be given a few "bye weeks" because his age (75) puts him at a high risk for COVID-19. Veteran broadcaster Mike Tirico will take Michaels' place on those weeks.
