What time is the Chicago Bears game today? The team will host the San Francisco 49ers at Soldier Field for a rainy NFL season opener.
The San Francisco 49ers advanced to the NFC championship game last season, and they believe they have the playmakers to make another big playoff run.Though the two teams are in far different places, they do have something in common. Both are relying on second-year quarterbacks, and all eyes figure to be on Trey Lance and Justin Fields when the 49ers and Bears meet in the opener at Soldier Field on Sunday.
He spent most of his rookie season backing up Jimmy Garoppolo. The Niners decided to hand him the keys this season, hoping his athleticism and big-play ability would open up the offense. Fields, meanwhile, needs to take a step forward and show new Bears general manager Ryan Poles and coach Matt Eberflus he's the one who can stabilize the position.
"If we get off the ball, we all do our jobs and execute well, then our offense is really good," Fields said.Eberflus is getting good reviews so far from Poles, as well as the players. But it remains to be seen how he'll fare once the games begin. The Niners are in better shape at tackle with All-Pro Trent Williams anchoring the left side and Mike McGlinchey back after on the right side after missing the second half of last season with a quadriceps injury.Chicago's Roquan Smith is ready to start the season for "The Monsters of the Midway" after a turbulent training camp.
