Steelers vs. Bears on TV: Channel, Start Time & How To Watch Week 12 Game In Pittsburgh

There is one big question on the mind of every Steelers fan heading into Sunday’s game against the Bears: Will Aaron Rodgers or Mason Rudolph be the starting quarterback?

Rodgers doesn’t need to undergo surgery, but he is still dealing with a wrist injury that knocked him out of the second half of Pittsburgh’s Week 11 win over Cincinnati. Rudolph replaced Rodgers and delivered an efficient performance, completing 12 of his 16 pass attempts for 127 yards and one touchdown.

Regardless of whether Rodgers or Rudolph is running the offense, the Steelers will attempt to take down a Bears squad that has won seven of its last eight games. Chicago is a top-10 team in terms of yards and points per game, so this matchup will be a major challenge for T.J. Watt and the rest of the defensive unit.
