Green Bay Packers vs. Chicago Bears: Game time, live stream, TV channel, how to watch
No more waiting for the NFL's regular season to begin.
The league kicks off its 100th campaign on Thursday when the Green Bay Packers take on the Chicago Bears in an NFC North clash.
Aaron Rodgers will be trying to find his way in first-year Packers coach Matt LaFleur's offense as the two navigate how much freedom the quarterback will have in the new attack.
The Bears, meanwhile, will look to affirm their place atop the NFC North after last season's division crown. But outside linebacker Khalil Mack and the rest of the defense will be under the guidance of a new coordinator in Chuck Pagano after Vic Fangio became the head coach of the Denver Broncos. Chicago will also look to iron out its kicking issues after falling to the Philadelphia Eagles in last year's NFC wild-card round on a deflected field goal attempt.

Kickoff time: 8:20 p.m. ET
