Bears to wear centennial ‘classic’ uniforms Thursday vs. Cowboys

The Bears will once again don their centennial “classic” 1936-inspired uniforms this Thursday against the Cowboys.

The Chicago Bears will once again don their centennial “classic” uniforms in Thursday night’s game against the Dallas Cowboys at Soldier Field, and there’s a ton on the line for the Bears.

After the Seattle Seahawks (10-2) defeated the Minnesota Vikings (8-4) on Monday night, the Bears are two games out of that final Wild Card spot — and they currently hold the tiebreaker over the Vikings, with another meeting against Minnesota slated for the regular-season finale.

The Bears previously wore their 1936-inspired uniforms back in Week 4 against the Minnesota Vikings, where Chicago dismantled the Vikings 16-6.

Chicago, who is riding a two-game winning streak, will be looking for some more of that magic come Thursday as they fight to remain alive in the NFC Wild Card race.

Bears open as 2.5-point underdogs vs. Cowboys in Week 14

The Bears are riding a two-game winning streak heading into a Thursday night showdown against the Cowboys.

The Chicago Bears (6-6) are riding a two-game winning streak — and some confidence on offense — heading into a Thursday night showdown against the Dallas Cowboys (6-6).

With the Bears’ slim playoff hopes still alive, they essentially need to win out in their final four games — but that must start Thursday against the Cowboys.

The Bears will be facing off a struggling Cowboys team that has lost three of their last four games and appear to be a team in free fall. Then there’s Chicago that finally found success on offense against the Detroit Lions, and they’ll be looking to prove they can keep that going against the Cowboys.

Even though the Bears are coming off a comeback win over the Lions, Vegas still isn’t as confident in Chicago’s chances against Dallas.

The Bears have opened as 2.5-point underdogs against the Cowboys, according to BetMGM.

Chicago has been favorites in every game they’ve played this season except three — the Philadelphia Eagles in Week 9, the Los Angeles Rams in Week 11 and now against the Cowboys in Week 14 — which is surprising considering their struggles this year.

POLL: Who wins Week 14 contest between Bears and Cowboys?

The Bears will host the Cowboys in a pivotal NFC game where their slim playoff hopes are on the line. Who wins on Thursday night?

The Chicago Bears (6-6) will play their second straight Thursday game when they host the Dallas Cowboys (6-6) in Week 14.

The Bears are coming off a 24-20 comeback victory over the Detroit Lions, where quarterback Mitchell Trubisky had his best game of the season and possibly his career. He’s continued to string together four solid performances, and the offense looked efficient for the first time this season. The defense struggled against Lions rookie quarterback David Blough in the first quarter, but they were able to come up big in the fourth quarter with a pair of stops.

The Cowboys, however, appear to be in free fall right now. They’re coming off an embarrassing 26-15 loss to the Buffalo Bills on Thanksgiving, where quarterback Dak Prescott, who was once in the MVP conversation, had another bad game against a tough Bills defense. Jason Garrett’s seat is on fire right now, and the Cowboys are in danger of losing their lead in the NFC East.

This is an important game for the Bears, who need to win to keep their playoff hopes alive. It’s certainly a winnable game, especially with the Cowboys struggling.

Can Trubisky continue his string of positive performances against the Cowboys? Will the Bears defense be able to pounce on a struggling Cowboys team? Can the Bears keep their slim playoff hopes alive with a victory?

Who wins on Thursday?
