How to watch Bears vs Bengals? TV channel and live stream details for the Week 9 game
The Chicago Bears were on a four-game winning streak until their Week 8 loss to the Baltimore Ravens. Ben Johnson is working his magic in Chicago, and the team looks more confident on offense this season.
The Bears' losses this season were against the Vikings, Lions, and Ravens. They'll fancy their chances against the Joe Burrow-less Cincinnati Bengals.
The Cincinnati Bengals are going through a dicey season. Zac Taylor's side has lost five out of their last six games.
The Bengals' most recent win occurred in Week 7 as Joe Flacco inspired them to a 33-31 win over Mike Tomlin's Pittsburgh Steelers. Bengals fans will hope for a similar performance against Caleb Williams and Co. in Week 9.
