It’s that time again: time for Thursday Night Football on Prime Video.
Tonight, October 5, NFL Week 5 kicks off with a game between the Chicago Bears and the Washington Commanders.
The Bears enter tonight’s tilt still looking for their first win of the season, as they currently sit at 0-4 and are ranked last in the NFL’s full-league standings. A win tonight would also snap a 14-game losing streak that began in Week 8 of the 2022-2023 season.
We’ve got all the details below to help you tune in, from where to stream to when the game starts.
Tonight’s Bears vs. Commanders game (and every Thursday Night game this season) will be broadcast exclusively on Prime Video, so you’ll need an Amazon Prime subscription to tune in.

Tonight’s Thursday Night Football will also debut a new pregame segment with chef David Chang, as The Post revealed exclusively yesterday. Chang will be showcasing local restaurants to the home team to give viewers more insight into the food cultures in different NFL cities.

The Bears and Commanders will meet at FedEx Field in Landover, MD.
If you want to snag last-minute tickets to the game, seats start at $51 on Vivid Seats.
Last week, both the Bears and Commanders let double-digit leads slip through their fingers, so they’re both entering tonight’s game off losses.
Historically, the Commanders have the edge in their all-time record against the Bears. They won the last meeting between the teams in 2022, and seven of eight previous meetings as well.
The Commanders’ offense has the chance to shine during tonight’s game since they’re up against one of the worst defensive lines in the NFL. The Bears’ defense is ranked 29th in total defense, 29th against the pass, and 31st in points allowed.
