Streaming services · Sports bars · TV channels · Blackout info
Chicago Bears fans in Portland, Oregon, are in luck! As a major metro area far from Chicago, you are considered fully out-of-market for the Bears. This means you will not face any local blackout restrictions when trying to stream games, giving you the widest array of options. To catch every Bears game, you'll primarily need NFL+ Premium for out-of-market Sunday afternoon games (note: mobile-only live games), Peacock for Sunday Night Football, Amazon Prime Video for Thursday Night Football, and ESPN/ABC for Monday Night Football.

Can I watch Chicago Bears games for free in Portland?
Watching every Chicago Bears game for free in Portland is challenging, but some options exist. You can watch Sunday Night Football games live on the Peacock free tier.
