CHICAGO – Hold up, Bears fans… clear your Sunday plans RIGHT NOW because the NFL just dropped a bombshell!
The Chicago Bears vs. Pittsburgh Steelers showdown at Soldier Field on November 23, 2025, is NO LONGER an afternoon game. The league has officially shifted kickoff to NOON CT – that’s a full-blown early brunch battle!
Yes, you read that right: your usual 3:25 p.m. CT vibes? Gone. This one starts when you’re still pouring your second cup of coffee.
Game-Day Weather Alert: It’s Going to Be COLD Expect cloudy skies, temps hovering around 54°F (12°C) at kickoff, dropping fast as the game goes on. Winds around 9 mph will make it feel even chillier on those Soldier Field bleachers. Jackets, hoodies, hand warmers – bring them ALL.
What Every Fan NEEDS to Know Before Sunday:
- Gates open earlier, tailgates start at dawn – get there BEFORE 10 a.m. or risk missing the party (and parking)!
- That fantasy lineup you set for the late games? Move it up – this one counts HOURS sooner.
- Watching from overseas? This noon CT start means kickoff as early as 6 p.m. London, 2 a.m. Sydney – set those alarms!
- Want the best atmosphere? Early arrivals = prime tailgate spots and first crack at the concourse.
Bottom line: This isn’t your typical Sunday slate. The Bears and Steelers are throwing down EARLY, and Chicago is about to be wide awake and roaring by lunchtime.
Get your layers ready, adjust those schedules, and brace yourselves – November 23 is about to feel a whole lot colder… and a whole lot louder!
