This year, fans can look forward to the Bears facing the Lions at 12:30 p.m. ET on CBS, followed by a matchup of the Commanders and Cowboys, and capping off the night with the Packers hosting the Dolphins. These games not only bring families together but also provide teams a platform to showcase their skills on a national stage.
