The Chicago Bears enter Week 9's matchup against the Cincinnati Bengals with a still-relevant 4-3 record. A fifth win on Sunday will keep hope for a 2025 playoff berth alive, and, potentially, turn GM Ryan Poles into an aggressive buyer over the next few days.

The Cincinnati Bengals host the Chicago Bears on Sunday in a battle of teams looking to stay in the thick of the playoff race.
