Bears still stuck in Chicago because of snowstorm

The Bears haven’t been able to leave Chicago and fly to Baltimore for their Sunday game against the Ravens because of the snowstorm that’s pounding the East Coast.
The Bears had a charter scheduled for Friday night to beat the storm, but that flight couldn’t take off because airports in the Baltimore/Washington area were closed.
The Bears hope they can take off at some point after 6 p.m. Saturday, but with Baltimore possibly receiving another foot of snow into the evening, that’s far from a sure thing. The Bears might have to attempt to fly in Sunday morning, depending on the weather.
Kickoff for the game already has moved from 1 p.m. to 4:15 p.m. because of the weather.
