[CBFF] AP - Packers-Bears game changed to Sunday night

[Victor Waldron]

That's really not a fair question because you can't predict an injury.
It's only meaningless from the standpoint of the Bears being set for
the playoffs but it won't be to the league if the Giants lose and the
Peck can get into the playoffs by beating us.

Ask this question to Urlacher and Briggs and I'd be willing to bet
they'd want to play each and every down.
