Mike Tirico to miss 'Sunday Night Football' as Bucs vs Bears

The Chicago Bears seek their third victory in a row in primetime TV when they take on the Tampa Bay Buccaneers on "Sunday Night Football."

Chicago beat the New England Patriots 30-24 on a Thursday night on Oct. 22. Then beat the defending Super Bowl champion Seattle Seahawks 34-17 on "Monday Night Football" on Nov. 2.

The Bears have won three straight since quarterback Caleb Williams returned from a hamstring injury, scoring at least 30 points in each game without ever trailing.

Oct 22, 2026; Chicago, Illinois, USA; Chicago Bears quarterback Caleb Williams (18) looks to pass against the New England Patriots during the fourth quarter at Soldier Field.

Chicago is 6-2 for the first time since 2012.

Tampa Bay (3-5) defeated Atlanta 16-0 last week without completing a single pass — not one pass —by rushing for a franchise-record 324 yards.

The game took place in a pouring rain lasting from kickoff until the game's end on a puddle-filled field at the Bucs' Raymond James Stadium.

No NFL team had won a game without completing a pass since the Buffalo Bills in 1974.

The "Sunday Night Football" game between the Bucs and the Bears can be seen at 6:20 p.m. MT/ 7:20 p.m. CT on Sunday, Nov. 8, on NBC, and is also available streaming on Peacock.

NBC Sunday Night Football broadcaster Mike Tirico reacts during the game between the Los Angeles Chargers and the Kansas City Chiefs at SoFi Stadium in Inglewood, California on Nov. 20, 2022.

"Unfortunately, I will have to miss tonight's game in Chicago due to a health issue," Tirico said in a statement released by NBC Sports PR.
