The San Francisco 49ers are back on the road this weekend, traveling to face the 4-7 Chicago Bears. The Bears have won three of their last four games, including a Thanksgiving win over the Green Bay Packers. Given that this is a matchup of two sub-.500 teams, this is a regional broadcast. The game kicks off at 10:00 a.m. PT on FOX, with Kenny Albert and Daryl Johnston in the announcer booth, and Laura Okmin on the sideline.
The folks at 506sports.com are back with their weekly broadcast maps. Their maps cover the entire United States, and accurately portray who can watch each NFL game. This week, the game is primarily in the 49ers and Bears main broadcast areas. You can view the map at the link above, but in the meantime, I'll list out notable media regions that should have the game on FOX:
1. Northern California - Fresno north, and it looks like Santa Barbara
2. Oregon - southern portion
3. Nevada - Reno market
4. Illinois - Chicago market, Peoria, Springfield
5. Iowa - eastern side of state
6. Indiana - Northern and southwestern
7. Michigan - up to Grand Rapids
8. Kentucky - Fort Wayne market
