The Jacksonville Jaguars’ 2020 home schedule will conclude Sunday as they host the Chicago Bears Week 16. Unlike the Jags, Chicago will come into the game with postseason aspirations and in control of their playoff destiny after the Arizona Cardinals failed to register a win against the San Francisco 49ers on Saturday.
As for the Jags, they will continue to fight as they have all season even if they aren’t in postseason contention. However, it will be an uphill battle as they will be without their top offensive weapon, James Robinson, who is dealing with an ankle injury.
As they typically do on Sundays, the Jags’ game will kickoff at 1:00 pm EST today. Per 506 Sports, those who live in the yellow shaded areas will be able to see the game.
On the call this week will be Greg Gumbel (play-by-play) and Rich Gannon (color commentary).
The Bears will enter Sunday’s game with a 4-3 all-time record against the Jags. The teams last met in 2016 when Gus Bradley was the Jags’ head coach, and the team was able to defeat Chicago on the road by a score of 17-16.
When it comes to games at TIAA Bank Field, the Bears have been good the winning two of three. The last meeting between the two in Jacksonville was about eight years ago (2012) when Mike Mularkey was the team’s head coach. Chicago was able to win that game handily by a score of 41-3.
