Week 7 could hardly have gone any more differently for these two franchises, with New Orleans blowing the Panthers out of the water despite missing some key personnel, while Chicago’s offense went MIA for their date with the Rams. On that note, has anybody seen them lately at all? Read on as we explain how to watch the NFL online and get a Saints vs Bears live stream wherever you are right now.
Saints vs Bears live stream
Kick-off time for today’s Saints vs Bears game is 4.25pm ET/1.25pm PT, which is 9.25pm GMT in the UK. A number of TV and streaming options are available for the game, and you can always enjoy your favorite NFL coverage wherever you are by using a reliable VPN.
After a less than stellar start, the Saints are now on a three-game winning streak, and last weekend’s victory over Carolina was a fine showing from Drew Brees and running back duo Alvin Kamara and Latavius Murray. The W was never in doubt, despite the absences of star wide receiver Michael Thomas and speedster Emmanuel Sanders.
Are they finally hitting their stride? Quite possibly, but it’s hard to shake the sense that the Black and Gold are still vulnerable on the other side of the ball. Three of their four victories this season have been by a very slim margin, and they’ve only scored six more points than they’ve conceded overall, despite being 4-2.
But the Bears’ wins have been even tighter, so much so that they’re 5-2 despite conceding more points than they’ve scored – the kind of scenario that usually only rears its head in fantasy. Their offense might not be all that, but Matt Nagy’s defense has been rock solid and they’ve been quietly racking up the W’s as a result.
But on Monday, for the first time this season, Chicago’s D showed real signs of weakness, as the Rams managed to put 24 points past them in a game that was widely expected to be a defensive masterclass. Nick Foles was sacked four times and picked twice in another miserable outing for the offense, too.
The good news for the Bears is that it looks like Saints superstar Michael Thomas will have to sit out again as he continues his recovery from an ankle and hamstring injury – and their deep-threat, Sanders, is still out of action as well. The bad? They faced a Saints team missing Brees and Kamara last season, and still couldn’t win. See has it turns out this time round by following our guide below to watch the Saints vs Bears online and get an NFL live stream from anywhere this Sunday.
How to watch the Saints vs Bears from outside your country
If you’ve mismatched a holiday or you’re away on business and you want to watch your country’s coverage from outside your country – or if you’re trying to get around dreaded blackouts – then you’ll need to use a VPN. This will help you dial in to a location back in your home country to avoid geo-blocks and regain access to the content and services you already pay for back home.
A VPN is generally perfect for this as it allows you to change your IP address so you appear to be in a completely different location when the big game is on.

Should I buy an NFL Game Pass?
Watching NFL online has never been easier thanks to the wide variety of streaming services now available. However, the league also has its own streaming service called the NFL Game Pass which allows die-hard football fans to watch every game.
It’s really geared towards international fans and that’s where it’s a great option. In most of the NFL’s main international markets, a Game Pass Pro subscription will get you access to every single regular season and playoff game live, plus the Super Bowl, and you also get the league’s live highlights show, RedZone. It costs £14.99 a week or £143.99 a year, so if you’re a big fan who watches multiple games every week, it breaks down quite favourably.
As well as the UK and Ireland, the service is available in countries like Mexico, Germany and most of Europe, and Australia – with only ‘domestic markets’ the US and Canada missing out on the full-fat offering.
Instead, there’s a US and Canada-only Game Pass option available for $99 a a year that lets you watch commercial-free full game replays right after they’ve finished. Not the worst offer we’ve ever heard, but don’t get caught out – GamePass does not offer live NFL games in the US or Canada.
Should you decide to give Game Pass a shot, apps for Android and iOS mobile devices as well as on the likes of Chromecast, Apple TV, Roku, PS4, and more are available – plus you can obviously watch on your laptop or desktop computer through a browser.
The only caveat for non-domestic markets (e.g. the UK) are that some games are subject to blackout restrictions due to deals with local pay TV providers (e.g. Sky).
